These people love to comment and criticise others' appalling behaviour yet refrain from actually moving from their seats and doing something about it. This can commonly apply to issues such as the environment, world peace, starving children, etc.

Organic idealism acknowledges the relevance of the material world but only as an expressive attribute of substance, and that it is substance that which holds a primary, and its material or expressive attribute only secondary value. Just as is the case in the natural world, where all material or physical properties in nature are expressions of the core essence of what is natures substance which is defined by energy, and as such in the case of the material world created by man, these are in turn also the expressions of man's ideas and therefore mans inner substance.

Get the organic idealism mug.The economic ideology of Equalist Socialism in which the economy is run by the government, where inheritance is outlawed, and where jobs are paid based on their contribution to society. As K. S. Lukas, “Equalist Idealism can be summarized in these words: Prohibit all inheritance, to preserve equal opportunity.” Equal opportunity economics is commonly confused with equal outcome economics. The main difference between equal opportunity and equal outcome is these two questions: What status does one have when they are born? and What status does one have when they die? Equal outcome economics ensure that “everyone” dies with the same status while equal opportunity economics ensures that whilst every member of the society starts with the same status, they will end up with different statuses at the time of their death based on their work ethic. This is the difference between Communism and Equalist Socialism.
What is Equalist Idealism?
It is an extremely capitalistic ideology where everyone, regardless of prior status, race, ethnicity, or gender start at zero and gain status in their society based solely on their own work ethic.
