It’s very clear that we have extremely different views on what drives humanity. Nothing wrong with that. You just have an optimistic and idealistic view on people and their intentions.
My issue isn’t what drives humanity, it is what should be taught to advance it. It seems like you think children should be taught “to get theirs and frick everyone else.” I just don’t think that is a building block that has been successful over the history of human society.
Morals are to fight against what is natural. Right now our “morals” are in the gutter. That doesn’t make me communist. It makes me want a greater world and country to live in for my kids and grandkids. I feel like our morals are slipping.

So, humanity up til now hasn’t been a success? Everything you have is due to the self centered me first attitude of the human species.
EVERYTHING

No, collectivism does. We before me does.

Like I said, you’re an idealistic person. Nothing wrong with that. You just fail to grasp reality and what it is to be human. Btw, capitalism (me before we) has led to the best life humans have ever lived.

And the real world has no room for your feelings. Grow up.

In it's simplest form, I believe that is what Children should be taught. To be able to survive, you have to be able to take care of yourself, be productive, and useful to society. You can't worry about what other people are doing short term, you have to do you, and get yours. To Survive. Eye of the Tiger....lol
Also along the way, you teach your kids to be respectful, have manners, value the good things you value. Basically the ten commandments. Which you can argue religion blah blah, but the ten commandments are a building block for being a decent human. Whether you are plane jane atheist or devout (enter religion here). Then you hope and pray that all the good things you've taught your kids, is practiced, applied, and they learn to pass it on to others, and their children. That's how you build a society that values good. But it's 50/50, it either pays forward, halfway or not at all. It all ends up on the shoulder of the individual to make choices.
