A Perfect World
In many people’s eyes, today’s society is the greatest society to ever exist; the United States of America is the greatest country in the world; and the world we live in now is the best world ever. However in my eyes these ideas and thoughts couldn’t be farther from the truth. If you were to ask anyone who wasn’t from the United States who the best country is they will most likely not say the U.S. However if you ask them who the most arrogant, egotistical, and selfish country in the world is their answer will most likely be the U.S. The United States was built on the ideas that it was “the land of the free”, and the “home of the brave” because it consisted of people who wanted to move here to start over and start a new …show more content…

This can relate to both the business and government parts of the society because everyone would be shaped by the four traits meaning everyone would have similar morals and behaviors. This is beneficial when talking about the relationship between people and their managers/bosses. People of power would be more open to the suggestions of others and take into account what everyone has to say; they wouldn’t just do what they think is best. The would respect the opinions and ideas of the workers not in the same position as them because they are making decisions based on the Common Good Approach. Also if someone were to make a mistake or do something incorrect in the workplace they would be given another chance, or if they were going to lose their job it will be made very clear why they are losing it. There would be a good working relationship between workers and their bosses, which makes the workplace more enjoyable while at the same time boosting the success of the
