Yes I agree... Is there a cure for civic apathy? Maybe again it's the squeaky wheel... Lamenting the current state, or recognizing the truth are simply perceptions. This might be the perfect forum, especially since it is an overall systemic problem. All the systems we see and are involved with have these very similar elements. I could focus on the engineering or business, but have tried to show the same symptoms elsewhere. It's interesting how these things seem so obvious to me while are ignored by others, where seemingly people keep their heads buried in the sand, or TV as it might be. lol.... Or maybe I simply have the propensity to find these issues. Like one time doing research in a lab here, I wondered why all the other labs were always empty. Just a simple question I thought... "Oh those are funded by big defense contracts so secret that no one ever checks if anything is actually done, so nothing is ever done." WHAT?? "That's standard procedure like the $500 toilet seat, they just need to spend the money, results don't matter and are easily fabricated." Recognizing the situations is fundamental to change, whether it's in child welfare, government contracting or any other community application... Cures come with understanding first don't you think?
