Modern Day Sir Thomas
In society today it is blatantly apparent that there are more than a few problems with society itself but they can for the most part be narrowed down into a more general criteria that applies for most what we would call first world societies. These problems range for social equality to even such things as living conditions and or minimum wage and their perpetrators per say have done almost nothing to solve these problems or progress towards a better society has yet to have been made. This in itself is a problem and it appears as if society has no intention of seeing the problem. The reasoning behind this “blindness” is not the fault of the citizens of these utopias, as they often like to call themselves, but in the way they are being lead which is to believe there is no problem and all is well. Additionally because these problems are left to “fester” one could say, they do not get better only worse.
First and foremost it is obvious that many first world countries, i.e. the united states that there are numerous problems namely the inability of many of its citizens to come to a consensus on various bills and even small squabbles. The government shut down for instance took place because one party, the Republican Party, refused to budge because of what the other party, the Democratic Party, had done in the past which was pass the affordable care act. The fault lies not in just one party but both parties. The Democratic Party because of its ignorance to the fact that the a large majority of citizens did not want the bill to pass but they proceeded anyway and the republican party because of this decided to not sign the budget for the new fiscal year which in turn caused the citizens grief. This simple concept of empathy and getting along in a sense could have prevented this but the greed of man or the interests of a specific party in this case caused the wants of the party to supersede the wants of the people.
