As soon as there are 2
or more people living in the same area,
individualism &
collectivism must be equally balanced.
If we allow excessive collectivism
to outweigh,
we get statist (big-government)
disasters like:
Communism, Nazism, Socialism,
Fascism, Imperial-State-ShintÅ,
&
North-Korean-Juche.
If we let extreme individualism
outweigh,
we get anarchy, disorder,
chaos, looting, lawlessness, & riots.
Think of it as
voluntary compliance with reasonable traffic regulations
for the sake of
smooth-travel,
vs. the extremes of:
no traffic
lights/signs whatsoever,
or
police-brutality & cruel-&-unusual-punishments
for minor misjudgments.
A perfect balance
between individualism & collectivism is a must
for a healthy,
peaceful, HAPPY society.
