Tell me sweet little lies

Anne Frank wrote:  "It's really a wonder that I haven't dropped all my ideals, because they seem so absurd and impossible to carry out. Yet I keep them, because in spite of everything I still believe that people are really good at heart." We have to tackle this issue, because ultimately it's the biggest lie the world tells itself.  "You good!  You just need to find a better system of government or laws that will make the difference!"  But if that were true, wouldn't we have found it by now?  After all, look at all the systems we've created over time.  We can do such great things, from sailing around the world, and flying around the world, to the moon and back.  Great achievements require great systems to accomplish them. So what gives?
