Possessive Impulse vs Creative Impulse

I respect Bertran Russel very much. My grandfather percieves him to be one of if not best philosophers of his era. Naturally, I would be inclined to read his works, and find out if my perspective on Bertran Russel would be similar to my granfather's perspective. I read his book on political ideals which is a very short lovely piece. In short, I found many discrepencies in this provakative book. The book explicates two impulses known to man which intimately impact our economic and political institutions. The possessive impulse which embraces the notion that mankind is selfish by nature, and an economic system should take advantage of this inherent instinct. The creative impulse, deemed more optimistic by many, believes in the amplification of our more compassionate instincts. A creative impulse would allow for two competitors to work together, rather than compete with each other. In this debate, Pro will be disproving the notion of the effectiveness of a creative impulse. I will provide examples of how mankind has benefited greatly from the possessive impulse, and how the creative impulse should be rendered null at best. C1-Capitalistic Progress: In the last 50-60 years, capitalism has proven its competency as a system that not only benefits the pursuit of democratic ideals, but also benefits the pursuit of stability and happiness. This contention will contain information about how two rival companies were able bestow us access to a more vital future. Apple: The Apple Corporation has bestowed us with many aspects of our life that we now take for granted. I am of course talking about the Macintosh which was released in 1984. This computer revolutionized aspects of the computer industry which allowed the common man to access features that would only be recieved by a computer specialist. The GUI(Graphical User Interface) allowed for the clicking of icons, and access to a paint app. Before the clicking of icons, computers had the same aesthetic as CMD. If any of you are naive on the subject of being a pretencious hacker, than open up CMD. Motivation:The primary motivation of Steve Jobs was to create a computer that the average individual could use. This can be easily deemed to be a creative impulse, yet he ran Apple with ruthless efficiency. Some people percieved him to be a man with a lack of caring towards the needs of his employees. Jobs also was competing with IBM. He desired for the Macintosh to replace IBM. Microsoft: Bill Gates allowed for his programmers to allow Apple access to Microsoft Office. His programmers required knowlegde of the language Apple was using. His programmers took the knowledge Apple unwittingly bestowed them, and established Windows as a GUI for professionals. He sold it as a software to an abundancy of hardware companies. This allowed for vigourous competition between Microsoft and Apple. Jobs desired the oppurtunity to dethrone Microsoft. Apple released new and efficient ways to process the GUI making it faster, while Microsoft marketed towards professionals. Results:Both corporations were competing, because of the possessive impulse. Jobs did not desire a chance to outgrow Apple, because of his will to help, but his will to gain money. This is an example that is applicable for many markets. This initialized two brilliant men to benefit us which allowed them to gain more advantages for themselves. C2-Evolution of Man: Possessive Impulse: One might question the relevancy of evolution, but these two impulses can only be understood if we also understand man's nature. The term that will be heard frequently through out this contention is survival of the fittist. Although, humans have modernized, and obfuscated the old myths and notions of nature, we still possess the same instincts which have benefited our survival. How did humans survive? How did other animals survive? All animals compete for resources. That is a fact. Our immune systems compete, on a consistent basis, to repel diseases or anything detrimental to your survival. Humans developed tools to acquire more food. Humans killed each other to acquire food. Humans only started to modernize when agriculture was explicated. These occurences were driven by an impetus humans have. No one can dispute that humans hunted, fought, and settled, because of the possessive impulse. Our survival is always of paramount importance. We are incapable of changing that. It is in our DNA to benefit our own survival chances, acquire the best food, and benefit our longevity. I request an inquiry from my opponent. Evidently speaking, when has the creative impulse worked. The creative impulse is compatable with forms of communism. Communism's nature was to initialize the creative impulse of man. Creative Impulse: If humans were built upon survival, than how were we able to acquire the creative impulse. Compassion and morality is what forms the herd instinct. The herd instinct is what aided human groups in their objective of survival. Each human hunted in groups, because it naturally would benefit survival chances. The most powerful argument Pro can initialize is doubting the very notion of the creative impulse's existence in men. Communism and Socialism can never function, because their framework is based upon an impulse that should be deemed null. It is the possessive impulse that has allowed for you and I do have this provakative debate. It is the possessive impulse that has allowed for you and me to choose which food to eat, which video game to buy, which book to buy, which song to buy, which movie to buy, and which idealogy to choose. I request that my adversary answer the following questions. Can you bestow examples of the creative impulse being initialized by humans?Can you prove that the creative impulse is not a derivitave of the possessive impulse?Can you provide a list of countries that have built themselves upon the creative impulse?Do you agree that many of the aspects of our society our avaiable to us, because of men with a persistant possessive impulse?
