***Not to mention American Government. After working for five years in Local Government, the freedom from bureacracy was much like getting out of a hunter's trap. Bureaucrats and their blinders....looking for YES people above all.

My most recent boss had one major fear, being embaressed. While my colleagues were paid to advocate for the best care and treatment for our clients, if we ever went against one or more key political players, you can be sure we heard about it and were reprimanded with hostility.

****The majority needs to be startled out of complacency. Somewhere I read an excerpt of a book about "Tipping Points" or something like that, when enough people finally decide enough is enough is enough and join together....

Now I have another book to find, read and dissect....

Always seeking another philosophy or methodology,
