We often say that a certain person is bad

or that a certain thing that happens to us

We can easily see that when something happens to us

we say it is good because there is a part of us

that has a goal or a desire to earn money.

it is bad when someone calls me an idiot.

but also to any desire, need or interest,

When we say that a certain person is bad,

since we fear he will steal our property.

Surely we do not fear he will steal our property,

but nonetheless, we say he is a bad person.

In this case, our interest, our goal, is to prevent suffering,

and therefore, anyone who performs an act

and we want all people to behave that way.

In this case, we have an interest, a need,

that all people would act according to our belief,

If we really didn't care at all about stealing,

we would not call someone who steals a bad man.

Just as we don't call a man eating lettuce,

We have no interest, neither personal nor general,

that the act of eating lettuce contradicts

You might think he is a bad leader because

he has raised taxes which shrink your income,

Or because he invests the state resources in industry,

while you think it should be invested in education.

But from the personal perspective of this leader

and the perspectives of the people who support him,

For them, he raises taxes to balance the state's budget

and he invests in industry to create more Jobs.

I hope that now it is clear enough for you

based on our interests, goals, values, needs, beliefs and desires.
