Thread: Are we Indians becoming selfish?

I would prefer to use the word Self-Centered, because at times we do make a show of helping others but we have an ulterior motive,either we gain indirectly or directly. Politicians are the perfect example in this regard.

its in human nature to be selfish at times. we cannot expect a whole population to be kind and generous. but there are still people who are kind enough to show their gratitude to others. our nation is quite known for hospitality we show to outsiders, and i think only this quality of ours is degrading and we need to just re-think on this issue

Every one is selfish by nature but when this habit affect the society & nation it is dangerous. Our politicians are burning example of this.

Yes we are becomings elfish and thinking about our own interest and grievinences. Its only we who think about ourselves and do not consider the nation as our duty. Tehre are several responsibilities that we need to fulfill towards our nation and we are all lagging behind in this due to our selfish nature and fulfilling only our own selfish interests.

Its not that we are becoming selfish, this is not the right idea on indians. It is only the government officials who are venile and culpable. When you are given powers to openly take bribe without any fear whatsoever, you would you hesitate? It is in human nature to long for more and have greed. It is just that these people are too much lost inside their greed that they are not realizing what they are doing to the nation.

Everyone is selfish. It is not only indians but people around the world are selfish and most of them think about themselves and not even their parents or their country. This is the main reason of growing corruption in the country and around the world. Selfish nature of the man forces him to earn more and more through honest as well as dishonest means!
