European history seems, for the first time given to the decision of the common man as such. Or the active voice: the ordinary man, before directed, has decided to rule the world. Forward this resolution to the forefront of society has been produced there, automatically, just came to mature the new type of man he represents. If looking at the effects of public life studying the psychological structure of this new type of mass man, is as follows: 1 a native print radical that life is easy, without limitation tragic, therefore, every average guy in it a sense of mastery and triumph, 2, invites you to assert yourself as it is, take it for good and complete their having moral and intellectual. This contentment it takes to close for any external body, not to listen, not to question their views and others have not. Your domain intimate feeling constantly urging him to exert dominance. Therefore act as if only he and his counterparts there in the world, therefore, 3 rd, will speak at all to impose their views without regard vulgar, contemplations, procedures or reservations, ie, as a system of direct action.
Perhaps this is the best explanation of how a common man has come to preside over our government, surrounded by masses of men to impose their vulgar vulgar and principles.
