Alternative Thinking
Posts in our Alternative Thinking category are aimed at turning around a nation of haves/have-nots to a more successful and productive national model…
A couple of years ago a package was delivered by Federal Express to my house. I opened it before checking the address and discovering it had been dropped at my house by mistake. I finally got tired of asking a non-responsive FE office to re-deliver the box, so I delivered the package myself. The recipient, an uneducated common street thug, attempted to ‘deck’ me for delivering an opened box. That’s when I realized the disparity and the need for education and support of ‘ALL.’ I expanded my Healing Earth group meditations to include EVERYONE in its attempts to raise individuals’ spiritual awareness around the globe.
From a sociological standpoint, it appears that similar realizations have been occurring in other unrelated social disciplines. The subcategories addressed herein include some success stories resulting from outside-the-box thinking in housing and education. Militaristic hard-liners might disagree, but the common benefits promised by providing basic needs in housing and education seem to point to successful solutions to these problems. How many other ‘problem situations’ might be resolved by a similar approach?

“In Denver, Colo., a housing program for the homeless reduced the costs of public services (including medical services, temporary shelter, and costs associated with arrests and incarceration) by an estimated $15,773 per person per year, saving taxpayers thousands of dollars.”

Likewise, limited thinking is driving ‘reform’ when concepts similar to ‘Tiny Houses for the Homeless’ appear to be what’s needed.

Medicine:
What about Bernie Sanders single-payer solution??? Rather than insist on “American superiority” WHY NOT copy a successful European model? In his 2007 movie, “Sicko,” Michael Moore set out to investigate the American healthcare system and found it inadequate compared to many other countries…a story that has not changed since then.

The Story of Human Migration Out of Africa Just Got Rewritten
This short article is the first I have seen that FINALLY asks some very basic questions from a scientific standpoint to begin challenging the prevalent UNPROVEN theories-that-are-taken-for-fact, yet seems to still fall for the basic evolutionary tenet of those “out of Africa” theories. ~ Don Chapin
Congress Members Who Understand What’s Needed
The first DoD cost-cutting proposal I saw was for a 10% reduction in DoD funding, as mentioned below. However, having witnessed first hand, even before the failed DoD audit, the waste within the military-industrial complex, I STRONGLY felt a 50% reduction/reallocation of DoD funding was FAR more appropriate…Along the same lines as this article discusses. This would result in a tremendous “Leap Forward” in redirecting America’s internal and global emphasis toward the ideals promulgated by our country’s founding fathers. Ideals that resulted in refugees flocking to the U.S. during and after WWI and II. ~ Don Chapin

Montessori education could reduce the advantage gap between rich and poor, but it’s only available to the rich
Parents have every right to pursue what they think is going to help their kids to live well. In fact, I’d argue they’re obliged to do so. But setting your child up for success in ways less advantaged kids can’t access is uncomfortable and can feel morally sketchy.
America’s Potemkin War in Afghanistan (and Elsewhere)
Iraq and Afghanistan veteran, Maj. Danny Sjursen, tells us why “after fifteen months toiled away in Iraq, and by then nine months suffered in Afghanistan, I knew something civilian observers didn’t: most generals didn’t want the truth anyway. They bought my Potemkin patrols hook-line-and-sinker because they wanted to believe, needed to believe, that the aimless wars, which defined their careers and augured their coveted promotions, could be won. And, surprise: they still haven’t been; and won’t be.”
Harnessing the Majesty and Grace of Gratitude
Gratitude is a powerful mistress. It makes the incredible credible and the unbelievable believable. Open your heart, lift your eyes, and welcome your world with gratitude, gratitude that is alive with spontaneous joy and passionate wonder. Awaken gratitude, and your life will never be the same. — Lazaris, channeled by Jach Pursel
