My political views, is that we overall transfer wealth from the wealthy so that its spent wisely in Life itself. This includes not only in the country of origin, but in support of all people around the world.
My view is that we need to focus on the study of the Mind and Self, where we understand how and why we are who we are, why we develop our personalities, how and why we make our decisions, and what roles that thoughts, emotions and feelings play within that. In addition, how does physical memory or rote memory play a role in forming the basis of our personalities, and decision making, especially when it happens instantaneously as a reaction. How come we have such difficulty in seeing a different point of view, without bias?
I'm especially interested in using what we learn, in the form of tools or methods that we can utilize to change ourselves, change who we are, our personality, change our gut instincts, our decisions, and being able to take on different perspectives without bias. Being able to stop an emotion, or feeling or thought. Being in control over our inner reality, and so creating stability within ourselves so that we may observe, see and understand all that is happening within us, within our minds, our bodies, and so all of the self.
"Perhaps the greatest mistake that we can make is to take for granted that we are GOOD, and INTELLIGENT, and RIGHT.
The one who is intelligent, questions whether they are intelligent, good or right.
The one that is good, will question whether he or she himself, or herself is good, intelligent, or right.
The one that is right, will never stop questioning whether they are right, intelligent, or good.
Never take it as Granted or a Given that who you are is what you Think or Believe to be.
Knowing who you are comes from never stopping questioning who you are."

The greatest error we can make in the study of the Mind, and Self of the Human, is not use our own experience as evidence, and to deny that we are ALREADY using our own experience as evidence for theories we like, and feel are right. The study of the Mind of the human is the study of oneself, because you are human and you have a mind! And we cannot take for granted ANY of our biases, feelings, inclinations, leanings towards any idea or explanation of the Mind or the Self. We must find a way that explains EVERYTHING clearly, without fault, error, holes or gaps. Doing so requires challenging our views. The self challenge or self-questioning is vital. Having an unsatisfied attitude for anything less than full understanding is great.
To start with a clear example, compare a baby/toddler to 10 year old person, to a 20 year old to a 40 year old etc... Children are way different than adults. Yet they are two different snapshots of the SAME person. So what happened? Something happened. Decisions were made. Momentary, in the moment decisions were made regarding whether you are pro-choice or pro-life. Pro-gun, pro-gay marriage, pro-taxes, pro-american etc... in one moment a decision was made. How and why do we make our exact decisions? As we get older, it becomes clear when we stick to our decisions and when we change our decisions. Even then, why do we change our decisions? How come?
Perhaps, the study of the Human, the Self or the Mind, is the study of the Decisions we make. Can you tell me why you make your decisions? What do you base your decisions on? And how do you explain other people making different decisions?
