To change the system requires doing something different. If we wish to change the playing field, a new game board is necessary for a proper game. The 1913-2018 modern century under bankster rule gave us a political system with essentially meaningless voting for leaders. Thyme to invent meritocracy to replace monopoly.
As a suggestion, let's put scientists in charge, in place of banksters in all parellel specialty arenas. This would remove science from being isolated within agencies following economic agendas. Instead, the questions can lead to answers that set direction.
Both universities and corporations have perpetuated false learning, as industrial secrecy removed the cutting edges of science from public purview. In addition, the gate keepers of peer review, science journals, allow only 'common' knowledge through the ringer of truth.
Science currently advances one funeral at a time, and is compartmentalized into science specific languages. Publish or perish tenure tracts have eliminated the ability of a young scientist to pursue a legitimate incorrect hypothesis - it costs a livlihood to be wrong. So they choose tame projects or hide 'not accepted' results.
Ethics and morals are not really observed, when survival is crucial. Group think and contolled publishing account for a single narrative in each field. Most scientists are trained in a single specific field with many sub-topic specialties. We need Renaissance Science.
In science, you first learn to speak the very specific terminology of one area. Words do not overlap areas of interest - for instance, organic chemistry and organic agriculture have very different baseline meaning for the term organic.
Non-scientists have different comprehension of science linguistics and therefore do not grok that scientists do not spend their time talking to other scientists, they talk to colleagues. Once you are on an academic science page, the observance of truth becomes agreeing with the common viewpoint of the institutional culture of your school.
The public is brainwashed. We, the public, now value the opunions of LeBron and Kanye more than the 'opinion' of say, Elana Freeland. She wrote the book 'Under an ionized sky' . When can we turn the conversation away from the cult of personality [he said, she said], and question the substance of what that personality tells us?
'I think, therefore i am.' Rene' Descarte. 'I think, therefore i am american' implies that my opinion becomes fact based upon how famous i have become. It is thyme to breech the political process to turn attention to the scientific reality of Gaian metabolism as opposed the rumours of war. The planet needs humans to behave better and quit fouling our nest.
It's all up to what you value. The weigh it is going, if money is what you value, you better fold the hand now, as the economics are breaking badly. Chemists chasing money leads to blew dreams. Balancing equations and playing with solutions is a chemists forte.
Namaste' ... joe
