THE INTERNET WAS AND STILL IS AN ASSAULT ON SOCIAL COHESION OR CULTURE!!!

Concept Connections Blue Background

Concept Connections Blue Background

Not so obvious to some, the internet was creating and is still creating cultural chaos with many prominent writers having lost their jobs and losing a national audience with it. Free information is very alluring but the reality is that the producers of the information have to be paid somehow and quality information is costly.

The quality of the culture has suffered and we are being brainwashed to buy crap and read crappy information more than ever. Crappy information may entertain many but it helps almost no one to realistically lead a better quality life.

Today more and more are trapped in their social networks all pursuing their mundane interests and having less and less political and social values in common with most of the citizens of a country or even world.

The real challenge is to create a new world culture which spans borders and creates a necessary worldwide secular morality to replace the old and decaying religious ones. I am perhaps one of the few who sense an urgency to restore a common human morality if we are not to descend into political chaos followed by tyranny.

Personal tradition is overwhelming national and religious tradition.  Search engines like Google are struggling to regain some sense of order out of the chaos that it helped to create. Google’s latest emphasis is on professional and reputable publications rather than promoting publications based on keywords and followings which often have no connection to quality of input but are quantitative standards which can and often do promote mediocrity and sensationalism.

China was well aware of the threat posed to its leadership by the internet and continues to the present day to censor what it deems political or social dissent.

Censorship of the internet is inevitable and welcome to some extent even though it may take many years to make some areas of it a quality experience for all who choose to partake and it will probably be at some additional cost to the customer or consumer.

Deplete: v. to decrease a subset(s) to zero in quantity

You can deplete your supply of food and be left without any or you can almost deplete your energy and be dead tired and ready for sleep. Depletion means starting with something and eventually or suddenly decreasing the amount to zero.

THE TRUTH ABOUT ESTIMATE*

download

Estimate: v. to approximately calculate the (time and/or position) and/or (quantity and/or degree) and/or value of a subset(s)

We are often asked to estimate the time of arrival or departure or how old something is, the location of the arrival or departure, the quantity of something, how hot or cold good or bad something is or the degree to which the thing exists, and finally the value of something may be estimated.

Estimating ability is very important in some things because over estimating the value of an item may result in losing much money in the process or wasting it by paying too dearly.

Historically it was your responsibility to estimate the approximate time for arriving at a location by car. Today GPS and Google maps does the estimate for you and is a very close approximation to the real time of travel from one location to the next.

THE TRUTH ABOUT EXPANSION*

globalExpansionTheme

Expansion: n. increasing in size and/or quantity

Most of us are familiar with an expanding waistline but business expansions not only increase the size of the business but the quantity of the business establishments also increases, especially in the quantity of almost identical franchises. Expansion in the real world is increasing the size of the territory and it has been the primary reason for wars between humans, a desire to expand territory.

THE TRUTH ABOUT QUANTITY+

legal_scales

Quantity: n. measuring how much there is of a subset(s) which is frequently stated as a number and unit of measurement

The most accurate description of quantity is to use number and unit of measurement such as four liters.

Using number and word or description is a minimally accurate way of describing quantity such as four humans or four plants.

There is a philosophical debate as to whether quality or quantity is more important. Quality usually wins the importance battle but in physical combat historically number of troops has often been more important than quality of troops unless the large number of troops is a cowardly bunch with inferior weapons.

THE TRUTH ABOUT REINFORCEMENT+

8863403

Reinforcement: n. increasing the strength of a subset(s)

We commonly think of troop reinforcements which means increasing the quantity or adding more troops to the battle or adding more police to the police force.

There is also behavior reinforcement which means increasing the frequency or the number of times that a behavior is repeated so that it is learned properly and has staying power.

There is also reinforcing your loving feelings with much loving behavior. There is also the reinforcement of cement with rebar which strengthens the cement structure.

In effect if you increase the frequency, quantity, intensity, or strength of something then you are probably reinforcing.

If you increase the quantity of the food which you buy then humans don’t commonly think of this as reinforcing food so quantity alone sometimes does not determine whether you are actually reinforcing something.

To make more powerful is usually what reinforcing is all about.

THE TRUTH ABOUT PLENTIFULLNESS+

download (1)

Plentifullness: n. a frequently relatively large and a much more than an adequate supply

When you have a plentiful supply of something it usually means that you have much of it and usually it means that you have more than an adequate supply of it available. 

A plentiful harvest means that you probably had a great growing season with much food grown. Of course realistically other farmers also probably had a good harvest so the price that you can get for your harvest may not be that high in price and your bountiful supply may not benefit you that greatly.

When something is on sale you can sometimes buy a plentiful supply of it so that it will last a relatively long time and you will save money in the long duration.

THE TRUTH ABOUT WASTE***

images

Waste: v. to use carelessly in large amounts and very inefficiently

How much time, money, and effort are you wasting on trivial and rather unimportant things in your life? If you are spending much time, money, and effort and don’t seem to be making any good progress in your life then it is time to reprioritize your life and make it more efficient.

Spend more time, money, and effort on the truly important things in your life and exclude the time, money, and effort wasters which don’t get you any closer to your goals or desired state of happiness.

Communicating too much, spending too much shopping, watching TV too much, driving around too much, losing too much sleep, drinking too much, goofing off or hanging out too much, and trying to do too much in your life are all signs that you should cut back on them and not waste so much time, money, and effort or energy on them.

THE TRUTH ABOUT ABUNDANCE***

abundance-3

Abundance: n. having more than an adequate quantity of a subset(s) possessed and/or needed and/or desired

Wealthy nations are living in an age of seeming abundance. There is more cheap energy, cheap food, cheap goods, and cheap entertainment than we can consume and this has led to many profligate irresponsible lifestyles. There are LESS quality humans, quality relationships, quality food, quality goods, quality entertainment, quality government, and quality wilderness.

Abundance has its costs and quality is what suffers. Technology when properly applied is an antidote to bad quality but unfortunately it is also being used to promote the abundance of cheap subsets which are destroying the biodiversity of the food supply and wilderness and endangering the quality of life for future generations.

A voracious largely mindless impulsive short duration consumption of goods and services is creating too many “live for today” inefficient lifestyles which nature abhors and is already punishing humans with bad health, dysfunctional relationships, and bad addictive lifestyles.

Increasing irresponsible financial and immoral individual behavior is creating government dependency and an irresponsible financially and morally incompetent inefficient government with a leadership which no longer knows how to govern justly.

A government which encourages and rewards growing healthy organic food by not taxing it, which promotes an updated secular moral code for elementary students, which promotes thrifty personal financial behavior which includes budgeting for emergencies and old age is what is needed. A government which operates with updated just taxation and laws, has financial reserves for fiscal emergencies which does not include the counterfeiting of money as needed, and balances the national budget on a yearly basis is what is sorely needed.

Profligacy or living abundantly beyond your means is not easy to change overnight but managing abundance responsibly is something which must be done for the long duration health of humans and the healthy economy of the nation and world.

 Finally there is an abundance of money not linked to tangible assests in the hands of wealthy individuals and there is so much of it that they don’t know how to invest it wisely for the long duration because there is such an emphasis on short duration profit. This oversupply of money and not enough smarts to invest it wisely for the long duration is what is polluting the world, polluting relationships, and destroying wilderness and biodiversity of the food supply upon which civilization’s ultimate survival depends!!!!!!
