A complete and total disrespect for what is true and correct. Disgust at the truth. Impaitence and critical thinking skills. Truth No matter how distasteful is ignored in favor of not hurting someone's feelings. People not taking the higher road and admitting mistakes asking for forgivness forgiving and acknowledgement of not knowing it all. Asking for help and giving well thought out responses in the form of help. Being self sufficient and relying on ones self for basic needs. And showing others that it can be done. Sacrificing comfort of some things for the betterment of others and further encouraging others to perticipate in helping those with less possessions to strive for accomplishment of personal goals including work health hobbies worship liesure and rest.

最大的问题是人们完全不尊重正确的观点，厌恶事实真相，毫无耐心和批判思维。为了顾及一些人的感受，就把令人不快的事实真相视而不见。人们不能堂堂正正的承认自己的错误并为自己的无知恳求原谅。寻求帮助时顾虑重重。越来越个人主义，总想依靠个人能力解决问题并向他人展示。不考虑实际情况，鼓动他人去帮助那些生活贫穷的普通人实现自己的人生目标，比如工作 健康 兴趣爱好 休闲娱乐。-------------译者：杨子坅-审核者：杨子坅------------

Politics in the US has always been based on the Cultural Assumptions of the Judeo-Christian- Atheist Ethic which means that the “Sovereign Individual” is the Basic (and Only) “Real” unit of humanity. Groups are not “Real” therefore there is NO defense against All kinds of Evolutionary Developments of varieties of Selfishness. Shame no longer works since the communities that make it work have been so thoroughly destroyed. That has meant is that the most successful “Businessmen” are those who are the MOST evil corrupt and shameless. All others fall by the wayside. Or at least don’t get much Press. This whole philosophy is based on the arrogant outdated idea that “there is no alternative”. Luckily Science is belatedly discovering that “Consciousness” is a “Field of Energy” and we are all in it including God if any and animals too probably. It’s not that the Individual doesn’t exist just that there is a lot more to the Universe than our Primitive “Religions” recognize.

美国政治一向是以关于犹太教-基督教-无神论者道德体系的文化臆断为基础，这意味着“个人主权独立”是基本的（也是唯一的）“真实”的组成社会的单元。群体不在是“真实的”，因此无法抵御各种各样的自私的发展。羞耻感不再有效，因为它所依存的空间（即群体）已经彻底被摧毁了。这意味着，最成功的“商人”就是那些最邪恶、最腐败、最无耻的人。其他人都半途而废，或者至少不要受太多压力。而这整个思想的基础都是基于过时的想法“没有其他的选择了”。幸运的是，科学总算发现“意识”是一个“能量场”，我们都身在其中，包括上帝，也许动物也是。并不是说个人不存在，只是宇宙所包含的要远比我们所认知的“宗教”更多。
（译者注：这人好啰嗦，大概就是美国强调个人主体性，导致大家都自私自利。在感慨一番宇宙何其大，宗教算个鸟，大家要包容彼此。。）-------------译者：xiaoke36-审核者：龙腾翻译总管------------

Everything. That is American politics is a wonderful philosophy of “freedom” based upon a self regulated social order. Modern American politics has descended into self serving opposition regardless of the value of an opponents propositions negative diatribes called negative campaigning which is justified because “campaigning is a dirty business” and a terribly manipulative party system. We have descended into a George Orwell’s 1984 world in which a lie is truth and the truth is a lie. Fortunately countless American institutions from the free press to universal education cannot be controlled by such destructive populisms.

所有方面。美国政治是一种基于自治的社会秩序的“自由”的哲学。现代美国政治已经陷于无论对手的提议是否有价值都要进行自私的反对、恶意抨击或者说恶意竞争变得合理化，因为认为“竞选是门肮脏的生意”、以及肮脏的被操纵的政党体制之中。我们已经陷于一个乔治·奥威尔的《1984》中描绘的世界，一个谎言被当做真理而真理被当做谎言的世界。幸运的是，有无数的美国机构从自由媒体到普及教育，都无法被这种有害的民粹主义所操控。

Too many people (*cough* Bernie *cough*) compare us to Western Europe as if such a comparison is reasonable or even desirable.

太多人（咳咳  Bernie） 把我们和西欧进行比较，好像这种比较是合理的甚至令人满意的。

Hey buddy just because lots of people do it doesn't make it principled.

嗨，伙计，因为好多人做这件事并不能让它变成依据明确原则的事情。

Just because there are positive outcomes doesn't mean that those outcomes are scalable or sustainable nor does it imply that the means of obtaining those outcomes were just.

仅仅因为它有积极的结果，不意味着这些结果是可扩展的或是可持续的，也不意味着获得这些结果的手段是公正的。

Ironic that so many of those who claim to be free spirits or free thinkers just end up as members of a herd only this herd is looking longingly at the grass on the other side.

讽刺的是，太多宣称有着自由精神或自由思想的人，最终都变成了牧群的一员，只不过这个牧群非常渴望的看着另一边的草罢了。

Money and the two party system that forces every election into an issueless horse race. Of course the years long media coverage doesn’t help.

钱和两党制，迫使每一个选举变成徒劳的赛马。长达一年的媒体报道并没帮助。
