Spock Logic The Needs of the Many

Mr. Spock knew that the needs of the many, are greater than the needs of the few. Or of the one.

What is the political message? One of hope. One of compassion. One of putting aside our own needs, in order to serve the higher needs of others.

From the Star Trek movie- Mr. Spock makes the case for Health Care Reform.

Communism/unbridled democracy= The wants of the many outweigh the wants of the few. Constitutional republic= The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few, neither the majority or the minority can take the rights of others.

But yeah they are communist in a sense. Communism works best when there is no currency for the government to steal or give to those who do not deserve it and when people have the work ethic to get a job done without pay because it needs to be done.

Too bad next ST instalments are doing complete otherwise. VOY: The Cloud: Voyager accidentaly harms a space amoeba and is nearly destroyed in the process. Yet still, Janeway risks life of 160 crew members for saving one space bacteria. And ST: Insurrection is the worst offender. Although federation decided right, Picard makes defiant stand for 600 people that are NOT NATIVES and denies billions of UFP citizens medical wonder soo needed in the time of war...

There's a reason socialism has never existed like that: it requires collectivism to function. All for one and one for all, because if that guy doesn't do his part, it affects everyone with a dispersed cost. The more people involved, the less the cost will affect that individual.

This anarco-capitalist pleads you to think twice.
