..than advancements? Often, including me, many people tend to point out the wrongs in something/someone/some place rather than what's really good about it. Not everytime and everyone does this, but the "problems" sometimes are easily described and remembered. Why is that?

I assume this is because human nature's feelings to point out what needs to be "fixed" and move on (but doesn't mean they do the fixing) or think about what ideas don't seem to follow. Thoughts?

Well, like they say:

"Whenever I do something good, no one remembers. Whenever I do something bad, no one forgets."

That's just human nature for ya.

Oh yeah, this just dawned on me. When it comes to attempting to improve society, you should look at what needs to be fixed first and deal with trying to improve upon what works second.

An example: Let's say that you have a new car that runs great. However, you car has a hole in one of its tires so you take it down to the repair shop to have it replaced. Let's say that when you get there, you are offered an opportunity to have your windows tinted. So, the question is: What is more important to spend the money on first? Get the windows tinted or get your tire fixed?

how can something be fixed if it is not identified?, a society will not run if everyone only looks at the positives.

I'm completely satisfied with gun control laws.

I'm completely satisfied montreal's metro system.

I'm completely satisfied by subway's grilled cheese sub on a parmesean bread with cheddar, lettuce, tomatoes, mayonaise and salt.

If you actually philosophize on what a society actually is, its rather pathetic.

wow, I'm moving over there.

what Elana said. We should always be striving towards a better society for everybody. I can't see perfection ever being reached, but identifying faults and working to correct them is what it's all about.

People who get murdered are victims, people who get killed in war are casualties and people who don't get killed at all are just plain boring. -Said by me-

In my dream world people wear trenchcoats and piss on sanity's grave.

Oh, I'm just not picky. It still smells like s*** and it's full of weirdoes.


Oh, but the architecture in the stations is so pretty! And there's always some university student playing the accordeon.
