It depends on the heart of a person how one sees the society itself. The heart of a person is like a glass of water, if you don't fill it with good vibes then it will be filled with bad vibes and bad thoughts. Society will work better when more people's heart will be filled with good vibes and positive thought. People are jealous by nature against each other so this jealousy can only be fought by nutrition of only good thoughts, vibes and deeds to the heart.
You are describing how it should be ideally. In fact, life is very hard and one shot can ruin the whole Cup of joy. Emotions of a strong man. It should be accepted. Governments are not interested in the life of the population and therefore people live in a state of permanent stress. This leads to tension in society.
