us-privacy

a little less than utopia, but it's a start:
tolerance, sustainability, freedom and responsibility

Utopia. Even the conception of this noble ideal fails to hold up against careful examination. But if all we can do is say a few good words that offer hope for tomorrow, I'll say them here.

Tolerance: As the boundaries of nation states blur during this great period of globalization, celebrate similarities with and tolerate differences among our brothers and sisters around the world.

Sustainability: Our planet has finite resources and we need to acknowledge that what we take today won't be here tomorrow. Cooperation, not competition, is today's standard for social conduct.

Freedom: Freedom means more than free markets. In addition to government by consent, freedom means freedom of conscience and security of person. See The rights of man and other bills of rights from the Age of Enlightenment.

Responsibility: Responsibility means more than freedom. Responsibility is an active participation in society based on the social contract of John Locke and Jean-Jacques Rousseau.
