If it were not for independent thinkers, we would still be back in
caves. Where there was no independent thought, just follow the
strongest, the big one, the leader.
Why are we not producing more
people with individual thought? My belief in regard this situation is
that many don't care, they just go with the flow. Also what people fear
most is rejection and so we don't voice our opinions. Since we fear
rejection, we keep our thoughts to ourselves and not try to tell others
about them.
