The 900 American Originals / #newera #USA #politics

We put our congressional leaders in power so that they carry out the legislative agenda they campaigned on. They get elected based on this understanding, go on to the U.S. capitol and are supposed to work for us, the people. They go on to talk emphatically on the floor of the senate and house of representatives. Then it happensā€¦ nothing begins to happen. The pressing issues that beset the United States of America stand still. The conversation changes and the supposedly well-respected news media corporate outlets happily oblige in changing the conversation. Time passes. Nothing happens. The people are quietly told that it is not easy, that it takes time, that perhaps the congressional leaders know things we do not about getting the priority issues enacted and so, it may take a much longer time than was promised under the momentum of the campaign. In fact, it may take the congressionally-elected leader his entire career. ā€˜But not to worry, they are fighting the good fight!ā€™ ā€˜Go Team U...

The Freedom Essays: The Immorality of Population Control / #positivedisruption #Global #criticalthinking #wisdom

updated 7/20/17 In the understanding of many, it is now clear that becoming exceedingly wealthy does not equate into obtaining great reservoirs of wisdom. It certainly does not render human beings with hearts and minds in balance and in accord with that of the creator, God. Found in religious scriptures the world over, the men and women prophets and prophetesses have not been resolutely those with vast sums of material wealth, though some have, such as Queen Esther (Book of Esther) and King David. More so than not, those with tremendous wisdom and understandingā€”that is to say, those who have been bestowed with wisdom and understanding have obtained it through God and/ or through the study of self and life, such as Siddhartha Gautama, the Buddha. In the case of Buddha, he was actually an earthly prince who renounced his wealth, so the case can be made otherwise that in this instance, he may have obtained a strong foundation of education as an earthly prince, giving him a platfor...

#StateOfTheMedia: Propaganda as Truth / #positivedisruption #socialresponsibility #TeamUSA #criticalthinking

updated 7.14.17 They are supposed to give us the news. To let us know what is happening across the country and throughout the world. The most established of them have enough resources that they can have journalists in some of the mot far-flung regions of the planet. On television, their news broadcasters are polished, focused, confident and portray as likable people you may even have over for dinner. Something has happened though. Something has gone terribly wrong and there appears to be no desire to correct it. Just as American poet, Emily Dickinson once wrote, "tell the truth, but tell it ā€˜slant.ā€™ That is to say, in journalistic jargon, we do not get the ā€˜straight scoop,ā€™ but are given something elseā€¦ a narrative of informational montages collectively aimed at painting a greater picture across time.  In this essay, I posit that the greater portion of the established, corporate news media is giving us feeding us information packaged as the objective and unbiased truth...

The Freedom Essays; Number 3: Maintaining Critical Thinking Safeguards Freedom & Liberty / #TeamUSA #America #family #edchat

In not raising generations of critical thinkers we do a disservice to the principles on which the United States of America was founded upon. The ability to think objectively, without bias and in a goal-directed manner supports the threads of freedom and liberty and is a service to our country, specifically to the ideals that our founding fathers championed and established. In not raising generations of children, men and women to think independently for themselves, we run the risk of creating like-minded spheres of political influence at risk of being overrun by singular political forces. Without independent critical thinkers who can recognize the powerful value to society in their practice of advocacy, we then become a nation of followers resting our minds while giving our hearts to a select ā€˜eliteā€™ political class of individuals focused on achieving and sustaining power. It is in such ways that freedom dies not in battlefields of war where our soldiers gallantly serve on t...
