Our Questions and Reluctance

The choice of a single right question is what matters for an understanding of our-selves and our surroundings. One single question is what makes all the difference between right and wrong, and, good and bad. We live in a world full of questions unanswered and we are often praised for not questioning for it makes the others around feel uncomfortable and sometimes for the sake of the assumptions, common in material sciences. Gazing empty skies above our head to a simple walk over the earth’s surface can take you in a big-bang of the questions enough to take your lifetime and yet will be carried over for coming generations with many past generations of poverty in a major part of the world. Taking into turn all the trades of knowledge, including religion, for most of their parts are equipments and instruments to earn the economic merits. It is what makes the world go around and the principle underlying the reality we live in. And, is also true to the same degree for those who live on their crude labor, but the underlying reality remain same: the economic benefits of spending time in a productive way.

We live in an age where we are tuned by the clocks in our living- rooms so mechanically that we don not have time for our surroundings. We hardly care that what questions are needed to be answered to be approached. We are not only confined physically, but mentally, as well, so as to result in a consciousness so limited which is so a insignificant part of a greater reality which is broken not just in one or two parts but in millions and billions. The question of identity and individuality is so dear that we very often end up demanding something better and/or more overriding the underlying spirit of equality as humans. The purpose here is not preaching but to cast some light on some of the issues that have dominated the history of mankind and are yet standing as they were. The right to subsistence from the state is one of them whose economic benefits also cannot be ignored. It does not encircle the right to subsistence as the most important of all the rights but as a requisite to concentrate on the work we have chosen to devote time at.

Every body tries to avoid inconvenience. A little avoidance of inconvenience can land the whole economy into a neck-deep trouble just like as the case with our voting rights and is true to the same extent for most of our economic problems. A classic example can be the problem liquidity-trap popular in economics, which says that when interest rates are at there minimum or zero people just do not care to deposit their savings in banks just to avoid the pain of reaching to the banks because they think its not worth taking and no body could imagine the startling consequences except who really know. It would turn the whole economy upside down reducing the economic activity from top to bottom leading to an economic chaos. Among the common one it just could be the reluctance in inquiries regarding small increases in prices at our local grocery shop and when we look back in nostalgia we could hardly believe at the cumulative effect. Some could say that income too has risen but very few will question the unnecessary calls for adjustments in which it is the price which increases first and not the income. Any deviation from equilibrium commonly called the point of stability is not welcomed in economics and in our daily lives but when it comes to pin pointing the causes they are always deducted to some kind of insecurity in some cases and in most it ends just with increasing scores.
