Government - #101- #55 - Without Comparisons, how can “people” think?

Without comparisons, how can you tell whose hungry, whose ready for freedom, etc. How can we sell anything if the people have no comparisons?

If “people” have no previous experience, how can they know what their “alternatives” are, what their choices could be?
How can you expect people to do or to act in any way if they do not understand what their “alternatives” are?

People vote for a better life…..but better for whom?
When the people can’t make a living, then they’ll want a radical change. Until that time, there will be no radical change and things will go on with confusion (but no radical change)…
We have Democrats and Republicans…. "Confusion" but no radical change.

In less than fifty years America will be ruled by a Dictator or ruled by the Military if things don’t change!

“Exert additional diplomatic “leverage” on Iran? ……(Does that really mean….anything?
Everyone wants freedom….Freedom from what?….Freedom from whom?
Hunger? …. By whose standard?...... (Live grubs or caviar are o.k. in some societies! )

Unless we have someone to elaborate the “American standards”, how can we judge the outcomes? The people we supposedly “give” the American values have no previous experience to compare it with. How do they know if this is better or worse than before we “gave” them?

In Iraq, for instance, what is “freedom” for them. Just to be away from Sadaam? How do we expect people to act when they have lived a certain way for thirty years? Do we expect to have them give up their religious preferences once they are free of Sadaam?
So they voted….Do they know the ramifications of a “unified government”? Who explained this to them? Did they vote to also agree that’s what they wanted?
How do we expect any answer?..... From whom do we expect an answer?

"Without comparisons", how can you tell whose hungry, whose ready for freedom, etc. How can we sell anything if the people have no comparisons?
