Value of a single thinker
Descartes believes in a single person works better than a group because there is one single plan to go by. But what is the value of a single thinker? I believe the value is less chaos and does not bring up fights throughout the process of whatever people may be doing. But i also see negative effects such as only one opinion, there is not just one good opinio or idea. Not just one person's answer is right.

I agree but I personally feel that Descarte is limiting himself if he thinks a single mind is better than a few. I understand that having a single person is definitely easier by the fact that they really is no controversey but just because Descartes' mind works better alone.. that does not say that a single person is better off
I can definately see where you're coming from as far as it being easier for someone to work alone than in a group but we all know that there is always a pro and con to doing something. When working in a group you always have someone to fall back on for support if it is needed as for when working alone that isn't present.
I also believe not one persons opinion is right...and i feel inorder to get through things done u need someone..even if u think u can do it alone there is always a person behing that.
yeah i understand all your comments. For myself example sometimes i like to work on things alone bc i like them to go my way and how i want to present them but then again all different people are good at different things and if there was someone working with me i could have done better in a certain category of the job that had to be done.
I strongly agree, having more than one opinion gives you fighting chance. You can see the bad from the good in your own thoughts yet someone can. This can be useful.
