The problems of todays world in a paragraph


The physical needs for food, water, shelter, clothing, and basic

comforts could be easily met for all humans on the planet, were it not for the

imbalance of resources created by the insane and rapacious need for more,

the greed of the ego. It finds collective expression in the economic structures

of this world, such as the huge corporations, which are egoic entities that

compete with each other for more. Their only blind aim is profit. They

pursue that aim with absolute ruthlessness. Nature, animals, people, even

their own employees, are no more than digits on a balance sheet, lifeless

objects to be used, then discarded.


From Eckhart Tolle's best selling book 'A New Earth :-)
