My reflections on Culture Economy Society and Countries

-How are they different
-Where do they differ and why
-How and where they spend their money

Here are my reflections:

Customs - Societies - Economy

Rich/Flourishing Economies - US / UK
US - Instant Gratification , Consumerism, Some needs/wants are always there to be fulfilled.
UK - Hypocrisy, Chauvinism, Snobs High hat attitude; Yet they are like 'Do what you want to'.
Japan - Rich economy, freedom of choice but not above customs and traditions.

I feel that Culture is more dominant than economy. Putting equal buying power with 2 different cultures will not make them similar. Their cultures will decide 'how' and 'where' they spend their money.

Good Attitude/Bad Attitude comes from Society. Society behaves according to freedom and economy. What is good in a poor society might be considered desirable in a rich society. You can see this in India. Middle class society is different from the Rich class. There are taboos in the middle class but in the Rich class, the same things are considered funny or part of life.

Culture I think can never be bad. Society, I think, can be good or bad. Societies can Stink but Cultures are rich. They never stink. Like Indian culture isn't bad but the present society is bad. It has anomalies like castiesm, narrow-mindedness and moral police.

We always see what we want to see. In other words, we cannot see what we really don't want to see.
