I think we are taught to be separate, and competitive to the point of pain.

It becomes too easy, in a highly competitive society to see each other as threats.

And, as someone else posted a while back, compassion seems to have gone out of style.

"...trained to worship acquisitive success..."

The entire quote seems to have our problems as a society in a nutshell.
