What I expect to learn?

I expect to learn the difference of master and slave morality.

Quote:

“Nietzsche argues that a healthy society should allow superior individuals to exercise their “will to power,” their drive toward domination and exploitation of the inferior”

Review:

A good and healthy society comes from a good leadership of a commonwealth. IT is accepting good conscience of the sacrifice made by each individual. A will to power is a will to life. We need someone to carryout power to serve for the good of a community. A good community results from a good leadership. The moral values that will be implemented came from men. When we apply good moral values we apply it to action. We need to know how to honor and respect our own community. Slave morality is essentially for utility. This means that man came from the fear and pain they made to became stronger. Master Morality is man who wants to brought up fear and morality to others. The people who are superiors must practice the way of will of power. It is willingness to do the right thing and to make sure that his followers will be on the right hand. In this way a good and healthy society might grow into a better society for all people. A superior person must act righteous and respectful in order to make sure that other will follow in the right path of healthy society.
