#101 - #36 - Well, what do you wish for?
It is time to decide what “people” wish for!
Question: Is their any way to decide what “people” wish for?
Can there be a majority of any thing that “people” wish for?
I don’t think so!!!!
As long as anyone or any group thinks there can be a “consensus” of anything, we are doomed to failure!
So, what to do? ........
There are groups that only analyze! There are groups that only criticize! There are groups that think they are powerful enough to direct human behavior, their religion, their way of government, etc. ! There are groups that only want to advocate their opinions!
What about groups that want to explore “successful alternatives”! Where are they? How do you hear from them? (If they just talk about any type of alternatives, they are missing the point! We want “successful alternatives”!)
Do the people have to “hit the streets” as a mob, to change things?
Is there a civilized way to address this question of “change”?
To the “few” who don’t need to run for re-election, to the “few” who don’t need the profit motive to do anything, to the very few “few” who think and reason; the challenge remains as to how to get organized and heard before “the mob hits the streets!
The occasional voices of reason are not getting to the people. The “people” are frustrated and are becoming more interested in themselves. That’s a “failure” of the “few” who are trying to bring reason and logic to our nation.
Should the “few” try to come together and organize? Is this possible? Can they then be heard more publicly?
Who will try to bring this group together? Can the various “think tanks” ever try to agree?
Who is willing to publicly challenge a misinformed voice?...... about facts?.... about conclusions, etc.?
Why must there be a “spin” on everything?
Are the “few” trying to determine the basics? Aren’t the “REAL basics” the survival of America and its Constitution?
Does our financial strength determine our ability to have the standard of living we think we enjoy?
Does the law and its restrictions determine the extent of our “democracy”?
Does our peculiar geographical position determine the commodities that we enjoy? (the coal. food, water, etc.)
Are these the “real Basics” we should consider? (Not abortion, Not gay marriage, Not education, Not immigration, etc.)
Are we so misdirected that we are distracted from the “real Basics”?
Do we consider these “Non Basics” in the same “logical and reasonable” way we intend to discuss the other “Real non-spin Basics”. Or do we continue to fill the general public with “spin” and opinions not necessarily based on facts? Do we wait for the inevitable “mob in the streets”?
It’s time to think about this.....
