There is a saying in Asia which is the opposite of how people think in America, "The nail that stands up gets pounded down" which basically means if you don't do what the majority does then its over for you.
The foundation of Americans here in the United States has Always been the opposite of the above statement. The reason for this is that if you did what everyone else did often you just died or lived a horrific life. This was especially true before 1900. However, to understand that the life of the "Rugged Individualist" is the foundation of Everything the is, has been or will be Great about America. Even though it is true in all countries that "The nail that stands up gets pounded down" here at least the nail can keep standing up and often not be killed or maimed or live and unfortunate life for it. And I would have to say that the "Rugged Individualists" in All countries that actually survive into full adulthood often become the very foundation for the future of those same countries. So, if even one person is strong enough to survive everything that they actually have to endure and to make it anyway then they become the salvation of All countries around the world.
In troubled times worldwide like these are, being a rugged individualist and actually staying calm enough to analyze problems and to actually come up with useful solutions to those problems and then actually applying those solutions will be the salvation of your countries everywhere. This is not to say necessarily that at the end of your lives the world will be a better place than now. What it is to say is that without you doing what you have to do to make lives better anywhere you can it is possible that no one at all would survive in your country the way things are now on earth.
I don't think it is presently possible for this amount of people to go on living on earth. It is likely that a pandemic, a war or many wars or natural disasters or food wars or land wars or water wars will decimate the present populations of earth. However, without your good ideas and efforts all humans might go extinct within 500 years or less. So, no matter what happens your work and good ideas help to preserve your family line for thousands of years. And as you teach your children and grandchildren this allows the family line to go on maybe forever here on earth and on the planets and dimensions we eventually colonize.
To the best of my ability I write about my experience of the Universe Past, Present and Future
