How An Australian family went a year without sugar

There are those who cannot instantly reason by analogy. So let's challenge them to simply practice doing so, in small steps.

Start off imagining that NeoLiberalism is synonymous with Corporate Welfare.

After all, even Albert Einstein said that imagination was far more important than knowledge, or even logic.

Now, imagine the MICC keiretsu surviving a year w/o ... well, all the MICC policy incest!

Go ahead, just imagine something along those lines. See, you can do it. It won't break anything. Now imagine many things, and then start selecting any of those novel thoughts which actually are unexpectedly supported by available evidence. It's called pattern recognition.

See! You're actually THINKING!!! Anyone can do it. Even writers from San Francisco with PhDs. :)

Now just do a equally simple exercise every morning, with your yoga. Start small and ramp up, so you don't overload your amygdala and panic. Before you know it, you'll be able to easily & instantly model changing circumstances, dynamic systems .... EVEN CHANGING CONTEXT!!!

Can't hurt to try. You may eventually even see your animosity to change transformed to open curiosity. Acquiring the habit of quick thinking is what all teamwork begins with, regardless of what those team skills are applied to.

Now back to the subject. Why can't some country today go a year without NeoLiberalism? Why not OUR country?
