Aristotle's Politics: community, the common good, and the limit money does not have
Why a person only fully develops inside a community — and why the things everyone owns get the least care.
The shared drive nobody tidies. Aristotle noticed it back in Book II — what is common to many is taken least care of — and puts two more things beside it: the capacities that appear only among other people, and the limit provisioning has and money-making does not.
- The situation
Four people have the password to the club's social account, and nobody owns the content.
- What the model says
This is exactly what Aristotle observes in Book II: what is common to many is taken least care of.
- What you do
Put one name against the account — a person, not a committee — and say it out loud at the next meeting.
