My Social Issues group in my Law & Society class came up with four principles that we thought to be the most important: responsibility, accountability, integrity, and fun. In my opinion these values are the path to happiness as a society and as individuals. If everyone fulfilled their responsibilities to themselves and those around them then there would be less fighting among people and more trust in each other. If every one was held accountable for their actions, this in theory would promote a higher standard of behavior. If everyone acted with integrity there would be no more lying and flaking out on people. And if people learned to live freely and have fun the world would be a more relaxed place. Over all I think these four principles, when applied to everyday life, would make things run much more smoothly and make people much much happier.
