Donald Trump wants to run the USA like he runs a business  , is that a good thing  ? Certainty in economic output is essential for any country  , those that study micro and macro economic will have a good handle on these topics . Localised and international economics working cooperatively for the benefit of all nations and its people is a lofty goal that has never been achieved . Generally it seems the picture is one of greed , and competitive exploitative measures , with a policy of everything for one and none for all , or at most , you scratch my back, I’ll scratch yours , but in doing so after a while relationships break down and we are left with …you say black I say white ….then we fight  .

In Vedic societal systems,  the businessman was like the belly the workers were like the legs ,the administrative and military were like the arms , that also included the application of laws , and the deep philosophical thinkers who understood theology , mind matter and consciousness and were well versed in the various psychologies of every citizen and how they can knit together were the head .

Krishna says in His Bhagavad Gita that in every society these four different classes of men exist , its self evident what the  particular qualities of a person are and what particular part they should play in societies.

The Srimad Bhagavatam has many verses, describing the original Varna Ashram system for social cohesion . Ultimately, nothing is to be neglected, but everything has its place, and there is a  listing of priorities that serve the purposes of fulfilling duties correctly with the correct purposes being met , then the social , economic and spiritual philosophical purposes are fulfilled and satisfy the hearts of all and protect everyone .

National interests are important, but the leaders should all be guided with the common goals as set out by a naturally unified intelligensia who are the head of the body of social order . Currently, things are topsy-turvy , the real intelligensia are silenced or are too silent , in a  global world a global intelligensia is needed that can speak with one voice , after all there is only one God , and He is understood in multitudes of ways .
