“If all misfortunes were laid in one common heap whence everyone must take an equal portion, most people would be contented to take their own and depart.”

Socrates, 400BC

History, Mathematics, Human Affairs, UncommonSense Vs Commononsense

To fairly divide misfortune in equal amounts as with fairly dividing fortunes requires a judge, a selector, a chooser, someone superior to us all.  Yet for this it is impossible. Our founders and our founder’s founder’s founders realized we must have faith, that upon our death, all will be revealed or reviled.  There is no other way unless some egomaniacal charlatan despot appoints himself or worse: it is elected without even knowing its name. In both cases throughout history it has always failed.  (you’re welcome; thank you Socrates)
