People today spend too much time on personal enjoyment--
doing things they like---rather doing things they should do.
In the era of the pursuit of personal happiness,
a handful of people maintain the idea that a majority of people
overlook their responsibilities for the whole society asserting
that people today concentrate exclusively on money and power.
Their opinion is extremely plausible.
Nevertheless, from my perspective,
individuals nowadays are always paying enough attention to the public area
especially considering the two aspects of the enterprise of charity
and the invest of the public facilities.
Initially, one issue encouraging me to hold on to the opinion lies in that
a plethora of affluent people donate their part or whole wealth to the poor
students and children. To illustrate my viewpoint,
I cannot think of a better example than Bill Gates.
It is universally acknowledged that Bill Gates is at the top of the list of
the millionaires. On the other hand, he is also the kindest person all over
the world. He established a funding that helps the children in Africa with
AIDS and the students in Chinese rural places in a form of Hope Project.
As we can see, not only does Bill Gates concentrate on the computer programs,
but also he devotes himself to the charity.
Lending even more credibility to my point of view is that
most of the facilities were built with the assistance of the millionairess.
Few would dispute that the merchants play decisive roles
in the development of American university education.
It is because of their donation that countless excellent universities
and colleges stand in America currently. Had it been not for the help,
the United States would not have been the strongest country in the world.
In addition, they invest considerable number of hospitals,
parks and cinemas. As a result, residents benefit deeply in the advanced
infrastructures.
Admittedly, there are still some people chasing the material nowadays
and they ignore others' miserable situations and conditions.
However, they take up a tiny percentage of the population
and they can represent the whole society by no means.
Taking all above into deliberate consideration,
I am inclined to maintain that a majority of individuals emphasize the common
pursuit of human despite the minority people's for personal happiness.
