Injustice bound to happen

Sir,

Since time immemorial, the need for a necessary evil has always been inevitable. Necessary evil does not only show up in a historic context but it is also observed in our daily lives. This necessary evil is defined as something that is undesirable but must be accepted.

We use justice as a tool to get better deals in life. Since everyone can’t be better than everyone else, injustice is bound to happen.

Ignore

A sick society must think much about politics, as a sick man must think much about his digestion; to ignore the subject may be fatal cowardice for the one as for the other. But if either comes to regard it as the natural food of the mind – if either forgets that we think of such things only in order to be able to think of something else – then what was undertaken for the sake of health has become itself a new and deadly disease. There will always be people who are powerful and wealthy while there are also people who are impoverished.

Equality

However, true equality is unobtainable and every attempt at doing so throughout history has resulted in millions of people dying through government sanctioned genocides, disease and famine.

But unfortunately, when a necessary evil is implemented there are always those who get the short end of the stick, possibly regarded as sacrificial lambs.

The impoverished are unfortunately always subjected to detriment when a necessary evil is at play. Nonetheless, in my highly criticised opinion, prevention is far better than cure. In life some things have to be done, whether they are favoured by all or by none, as long as they are for the greater good. That is how most success stories come about, through the introduction of a necessary evil.

As individuals, we need to undergo a paradigm shift, and start looking at things from a different angle. This is a time for thorough introspection and a switch in ideologies.

The time of being reactive instead of being proactive is gone. This is a necessary evil to prevent pandemonium in future.
