Individualism

in⋅di⋅vid⋅u⋅al⋅ism

"A view that stresses the importance and worth of each person. In economics, it is the doctrine that individuals best serve the public interest by pursuing their own self-interest. For example, the businessman who expands his company to increase his profits also creates jobs for many people and thereby serves the public interest."

The savage [from Huxley's: Brave New World] and I concur... we're "claiming the right to be unhappy." Perfection is the capture of inperfection, having a right, a right=oppurtunity. Perfect, is not perfect, it's having the right (oppurtunity to control!) to your own emotions, body, liberty and life.
