Gary, I see a lot of this 'wasting money' or costing the health service £millions etc. Of course it seems so to those who see it that way. But war - including war on our biology and consciousness, is 'profitable'. There is another side to the balance sheet.
Generating fears that can be gotten to 'take' in our minds can then switch the levers to assign the budgets to which such people are accustomed to living on.
War on 'anything' is always a ploy to sucker the reactive permission to keep the 'war going'.
I don't say anything you don't in some way know - but I see the frame of our thinking and writing sets the bias of consciousness we then propagate.
Lack of consciousness is the condition in which illusions and deceits pass muster as true. And are defended as such!
Money and its leverage operates a ruse by which wealth is being redistributed. The remaking of the world in the image of those who are dedicated to acquiring the power to do so is the use of very clever thinking by which to trick others into giving up their power, their health, wealth and of course happiness.
What can be done?
I was heartened to find myself in the company of Confucious, who in paraphrase is recorded as responding to the question; "What would you do if you were in the reins of power?" with "I would redeem the dictionary".
Bread is not bread, profit is not profit and power is not power. Rather the belief and suggestion of these can be traded as if the real thing.
To uncover truly discerned meaning may involve dictionaries and etymological sources as well as what in fact, current usage is believing. But true meaning must find recognition in the heart's presence - or it is simply a database parsed for a matching record.
So what is the mind but the tool of inspired, supported and guided enquiry and research. Seek and find the meaningful, coherent, worthy, qualities of life!
And what is a man who identifies with his tool?
A surgeon does not see him/herself as wasting money in the insertion of stents. Nor the hospital that gains such funding. ...too big to fail?
Resorting to blame and shame is - I hold - the persistence of the problem - perhaps into a change of 'new clothes' that the Emperor's outfitters had prepared well in advance.
If self-responsibility, (the result of a genuine education,) is the freedom to choose health, then it can not be the denial and invalidation of that freedom by guilt and feared penalty.
The freedom to choose sickness is of the same freedom, but opens an education under pain, instead of joy. Perhaps leading to the willingness to question and challenge tyranny and joylessness under false promises.
Wasted opportunities are easy to judge in hindsight - and hindsight tends to be used by blame driven attempts to coerce change - or perhaps to define the blamed as an evolutionary condition/the human condition and escape any call to confront our own consequences by manual override.
We may choose to limit our consciousness, and generally I see that as being effected by the fragmenting oppositional paralysis we call or flag as 'the world'. But the more we withdraw from relational life into judgements, the more an anti-life agenda moves in. If life breaks our heart, is it life, or is it what we MADE of life? If our own thinking plays a key role in how we interpret and react to life, then is it truly our OWN thought if it runs as an acquired habit learned under fearful conditioning?
