Social responsibility can be viewed as a part of the social contract in that is the responsibility of each entity whether it is state, government, corporation, organisation or individual that they are contributing to society at large, or on a smaller scale.
Each indicidual has resposilbility only to him or herself.
In a way it can be traced back to ideas such as the golden rule of treating everyone else as good as you would want to be treated by everyone else.
So what your saying is that you want to be exempt from this? You want to poo on people while have them smile on you in return? It's not going to happen.
That is totally miscontrueing what I said. I said I don't feel responsibility to others, not that'd "poo" on them. Treating others is fairly and as you want them to treat you is not a social responsibility, it is a moral responsibility. It is a matter of respecting rights, not socialism. So, in short, despite feeling no repsonsibilty to others I do treat people as they deserve to be treated. Besides treating other the way you want to be treated results in personal gain, which is all the more reason for me to do it.
With a lack of social responsibility, there really wouldn't be any government. Now I may not be a fan of government, but I realize its nessesity to continued civilization as we know it.
Wrong. Governments would exist to pass laws to make sure we act morally as opposed to socially, which is a far better thing. they would also supply some neccessary. services to the public. That is all governments have the right to do. Current governments exceed that right by expecting us to act socially and charging taxes. Don't get me wrong. The government has the right to charge for their services. However, that fee would be like a commercial fee, in that you can choose not to use the service, but that would mean lack of access to it. Taxes, however, are theft.
You must be a lonely person to not care about the desires of anyone else.
I never said that I don't care about the desires of anyone else. I just said I don't let them get in the way of my own. In fact, I do care about the desires of others and their well being. I am in fact a caring person. It's just that I care about myself before any others. After all, as my quote said, "Your life is yours alone. Rise up and live it." It's my life, so the responsible thing is to look after myself first. However, I do help people out at times, but that's because I like to do so, not because it's "required/expected" of me.
