Description: Inequality, Ego, causes all of manner of ills in society, on the personal and international level.
"Because inequality harms the quality of social relations (increasing violence, reducing trust, cohesion and involvement in community life), people become more self-interested, less public spirited, less concerned with the common good. This is shown in the amount of overseas aid countries give, in the proportion of waste recycled, in how countries score on the global peace index, and in how important business leaders think it is that their governments abide by international environmental agreements."

Description: Human nature is the great danger.
"... Man can not stand a meaningness life. He need more understanding of human nature because the only real danger that exists is man himself. He is the great danger. And we are pitifully unaware of it. You know nothing of man, far too little. He should be studied because we are the origin of all coming evil."

Description: Competition leads to status insecurity, Competition also leads to inequality, which leads to total social disfunction.
"I'm looking and talking about the psychosocial effects of inequality. More to do with feelings of superiority and inferiority, of being valued and devalued, respected and disrespected. And of course, those feelings of the status competition that comes out of that drives the consumerism in our society. It also leads to status insecurity. We worry more about how we're judged and seen by others, whether we're regarded as attractive, clever, all that kind of thing. The social-evaluative judgments increase, the fear of those social-evaluative judgments.""So what we're looking at is general social disfunction related to inequality. It's not just one or two things that go wrong, it's most things."
