What Adults Don't Understand About Autonomy

Instead of practicing autonomy, many adults play the role of the authority figure over younger generations, as well as all other generations.

A human being is perfectly capable and most acceptable for governing themselves, having the ability to understand and implement what is best for them.

These adults don't understand the ethics, efficiency and empowerment that come with autonomy. P First off, the domination over other human beings is wrong.
 * Good first paragraph, you brought up some good points. 1205272509**

The most suitable person for governing a person, is that person themselves, who is much more able to understand their situation, as well as most suitable for making decisions that effect themselves.

Those who assume the authoritarian role are not necessarily there because they are the most suitable for the position, but because they were placed their out of privilege, fulfilling the role completely out of self interest.

The governing of others is inherently repressive, designed to maintain divisions and exploit others. P Also, authoritarianism is ineffective and timely.

Instead of taking an active part in decision making, we are forced to take a step back, surrendering our participation to a higher power.

Such as in the workplace,where workers are most suitable for making decisions that affect them, for they are the ones who are doing the work, making them most affected and understanding of the decision being made.

Instead, their participation in direct democracy is replaced by a completely unnecessary and inefficient position, the boss.

The boss does nothing more than make decisions which they are unsuitable to make, only looking out for their own self interest, which is making the most profit out of the worker's labor, the fruits of which, they do not deserve.

With the autonomous mindset of workers in self management, efficiency is increased, workers are empowered by taking control of their own lives and the leach is eliminated, allowing them to wreak the full benefits of the work which they performed.

This does not just apply to the workplace, but in social situations, relationships, public works and anything which has been plagued by authoritarianism. P Lastly, having the ability to take control of your own life is very empowering.
 * Good use of examples 1205272509**

We need to realize how great of things we are able to accomplish, as long as we are told we can't even take care of ourselves, we will be held back from making any real, revolutionary change.

Once we have that, we can go about helping other's raise their standard of living and others take control of their lives.

P Peter Kropotkin once wrote, "The law is an adroit mixture of customs that are beneficial to society, and could be followed even if no law existed, and others that are of advantage to a ruling minority, but harmful to the masses of men, and can be enforced on them only by terror."

It is obvious that human beings can cooperate and work autonomously when what is being done is being beneficial to all, but it is when what is being done is unfair, wrong and scheming, that people must be forced to participate.

For you only tell a lie, when you have something to hide.
