All I can do is pose the questions, lay out my thoughts on the matter, and keep on keeping on. All contributions effect the ongoing process of life, if only by being called into existence. <br /><br />I'm going through a mystical phase. We are not isolated individuals, we are systems in systems and together make up what is. My miniscule efforts are therefore infinitesimally changing things, as are yours, and all others. I'm learning to live with that wee crumb. What will be will be, but trying to do good makes me feel better than doing nothing. I'd guess that's true for you too.<br /><br />By the way, John Ringland is where I'm at right now. Check him out, he's quite prolific and open minded too:<br /><br />http://www.newciv.org/nl/newslog.php/_v550/__show_article/_a000550-000003.htm<br /><br />There are many other articles to peruse.Tobyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16258136994278139356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7378568575885387942.post-34306836185000875772010-01-29T13:17:36.169+00:002010-01-29T13:17:36.169+00:00Well, you commented at my site before I did at you...Well, you commented at my site before I did at yours, but I read your (as usual) well written and thoughtful entry first. <br /><br />You ask a pertinent question about corruption (and money) "What are we going to do about it?"<br /><br />"We", as a collective, don't seem terribly willing. much less capable (more's the pity) of mustering much push back against the entrenched corruption of which you speak.Edwardohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03613197383283896190noreply@blogger.com
