Yes there is some irony to that statement. I have been pondering lately a question. Let me state it and then I would love to hear any of your theories.
Why do we seem to have a basic human need to complain?
Oh, You don't complain? sorry. Well then why do you think "people" other than you have the need to complain. Think about it for a minute. The other political party is going to ruin the country, the current political party is in it for themselves and they don't listen to or care about "the people" (this same accusation can universally be applied to your boss, your company, salespeople, police, or any other person with authority or power that can directly affect you), the city (especially yours) can't seem to get the traffic problem figured out, drivers (especially drivers in your city) are reckless and oblivious, your employer does things the hard way making your job more difficult, it is too hot in the south and too cold in the north, gas prices are ridiculously unfair, your house is too small and you need more space, or too big and it costs a ton to cool/heat, or too old or new so there are projects needing to be done. Shall I go on?
So again my question, "What inherent human need moves us to complain?" I have my theory. I would love to hear yours.
