Words

• Cathartic - to expel in a natural way. History goes as far as renaming people and groups to suit the agenda.

Contemplations

• What is the difference between a Republic and a Democracy?
  

  I see these terms used in ways that seem to be synonymous.
  A Republic addresses a flaw in Democracy that is referred to as "Excessive Democracy". It is not a game of words, but is none the less a complicated distinction. Do a Google search for: difference between republic democracy.

• What is fascism?
  

  Fascism is derived from the word "fasci" (fass'eye). A fasci is an ancient symbol, it is an axe that has a bundle of lighter sticks fastened around the axe's handle, wrapped and bound with a cord.
  It appears that there are two schools of fascism.

'Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me.' If this is true than, why do we so hate to be involved with lawyers. Who created this song, and why is it a childhood lesson, to teach us something that is so absolutely untrue? The pen is mightier than the sword.

Bunny rabbits laying chocolate eggs.

Did M.C. Hammer's use of the term 'The Bomb' diffuse the negative force of the said phrase?

Does Nintendo's naming of the Wii game console help to diffuse the negative force of the word Wii or WII?

What do I see (government)?
Branded marketing tools targeted to regionally, ethnically and racially defined markets. A tool, for the few who control the masses, to explain and justify how their decisions are correct.

Secrecy in Democracy.

Where does the funding for scientific research (the 'truths' that get encoded into our left-brain) come from?

The system requires a constant flow; court cases, prisoners, tax payers, etc. Without this constant flow the system would lose power.

Should one follow the advice of Slartibartfast, and not concern themselves with things that are outside of their grasp?
I hear that the first step to initiate change, in a democracy, is to influence you congressman. Who is your Congressman?
As citizens, we have no direct influence over the federal government. We can, however influence local and state governments which do have power that reaches the federal level. As corrupt as our election system is, it is all that we have - for now.
