verbal images

Diversity of approach builds a redundency into the system that ensures that various aspects of system business are covered. By limiting the scope of the 'alloweds', we subtract valid methods of addressing challenge. Initiative appears to be the bane of the 'ruling' class as exemplified by the education system. The middle managers, assertive as sheepdogs to their flock, push paper and chant slogans of why a 40-hour work week is necessary to accomplish 5 hours of productive work. Artificial 'needs' with artificial supports provide a scaffolding that tethers thought into preconceived patterns - which fortunately appear to diminish visibly, like the end of waves petering out upon the beach.

Change brews, creating antz in pantz - people edgy to do, to think, to break the mold, without quite knowing how. It may be that the best way to accomplish something worthwhile toward accumulating value is to ignore and walk away. The current focus of attention acts as a spotlight to the people drawing the cards - who seem to be in the last vestiges of the power grab for 'ultimate' control. Fukiyama's End of History, so to speak. Patience counciled, this form cannot sustain. Keep your head down, your mouth shut and your eyes and ears open. After all, we were given two eyes and ears, but only one mouth and one head. (cept Zaphod)

And Vache is right : To all my honest republican friends - perhaps it is time for a bit of outrage from inside the Republican party. The constitution is a document that you all appreciate, how about getting your elected members to stand up for it. Today. Just give a listen to Ron Paul (R-Tex)
