America's Self-Interest

Until the end of the nineteenth century when America faced the opportunity to establish a colonial empire, America's selfish USA was still an isolated country. By 1890, the United States began to expand its influence on Caribbean and South Pacific islands as well as in Europe. They entered the case of another country, arguing that it is for the benefit of all people and driven by idealism. In fact, the United States is primarily for its own interests.

The president took office by splitting the country and promised to put the US's own interests on global interests in ways that transcend traditional criteria. On the other hand, Pope Francisco tried to break the tradition of using the Pope to unite people and challenge the reputation of the Church. Pope traditionally avoided many of the work related power issues. He understands the symbolic meaning of self-sacrifice. President Trump will never consider this possibility. He accepted all work he had - and his relatives - as if he bought and paid. His staff boldly proposed to transfer the White House to New Jersey weekends instead of New York or Florida, saving taxpayer money.

American economist Milton Friedman believes that greed and self-interest are the universal features of mankind. Freeman pointed out in 1979 Phildonna Hugh's performance as follows. "The world depends on individuals pursuing their own interests." He continued to explain that in capitalist countries only individuals can pursue their own interests and people can get rid of "poverty". For a long time, wage labor has been compared with slavery. Therefore, the phrase "salary slavery system" is often used as a derogatory term for wage labor. Likewise, slavery supporters began to insist that wage slavery is actually worse than slavery, looking at "slavery society and the evil of a free society, the slave system of mankind and the slave system of the capital". It was.

Today, the virtue of the United States is obvious to us. Individuals can freely practice unprecedented richness, health, and happiness created by rational virtue while pursuing their own interests. However, the virtue of the United States does not seem to the society that still believes that blind belief and selfless duty are moral ideals, rationality and self-interest still do not even moral value even a completely bad society . If Americans do not see American virtues, do they think they saw? They think they see the virtue in Kant's idea and are best reflected in American enemies. Graduates who gave a speech at the graduation ceremony of Harvard University stated as follows.
