I missed it,  but found it.  Usually when looking you miss the obvious because you expect something to be in a certain place.  But thanks though I will check those books out.

Isn't there a point where the dog bites the hand that feeds it? Or is that revolutionary jibber jabber...

Many people don't have the capacity to think for themselves so, IMO, we need social engineers to make society more productive.  It has certainly made us much more well-off than previously.  Ideas can be dangerous and only the brave decide to venture into understanding how the world works...

Many prefer just to be happy.  We should consider that although we have come a long way, we can still make sure that everyone is better off. 

Well it all comes down to making a choice. Do you want others to tell you what to think and how to think, or do you agree with Patrick Henry.........

"For my part, whatever anguish of spirit it may cost, I am willing to know the whole truth; to know the worst and provide for it. Is life so dear or peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery?"

The choice is yours.

I have chosen to think for my self.  My ideas are openly and willingly tested daily.  It is not an easy task.

But some just prefer to stay in la-la land.

Our democracy has created an environment of indecision at times of impending crisis. 

If life is easy for you, then you aint livin.
