I awakened from a corporatist social coma nearly a decade ago. All my life I had adhered to the company line – a good and dutiful little soldier who survived a Jesuit education, combat tours in Vietnam, and senior levels in international corporate management. Life was very good and there was little need for me to think too deeply about what governments were doing in my name. I was apolitical. I was far too busy in corporate meaninglessness to devote much thought to the wider world and what was happening in it, which to me was an endless flow of shocking news that became as white noise to my consciousness. I’m not proud of that.

Fortunately, Life remains good. Consciousness - perhaps conscience - has allowed the mist of self-interest to sufficiently clear and I see that many of us live a zero sum existence. We struggle to buy products we don’t need produced by people barely able to subsist using energy that is damaging the planet – madness!

The Powers That Be (TPTB) have excelled in a state of continuous war adventures to sustain the global military industrial complexes administered mostly by western white males over fifty. How is that a democratic demographic? I’ve come to be aware that we, all of us, are merely acceptable collateral damage to those bands of thugs. The acts “they” commit in our names range from just dirty to horrific and the criminals remain largely unaccountable. In my estimation, modern governance models simply do not work to the benefit of most of mankind.

Whilst exploring within my new world of social awareness, I came across the many works of Heather Marsh, aka Georgie BC. The first work I read by her four years ago, Binding Chaos, was like a vitalising drink from a cool mountain spring after a great thirst. She puts forward a practical system of social governance worthy of consideration.

I’m not going to attempt to do justice to Binding Chaos. What I am able to do is advise you Heather’s thinking is enlightening and exciting. The very platform of Steemit is a manifestation of Binding Chaos and the concept of stigmergy. Her alternatives to TPTBs' controls are logical and serve to give us hope and an alternative and enlightened system in which to live and thrive.

Her work is free of charge; however, if you benefit from her work, she’ll gladly accept whatever one is comfortable donating. Check out Binding Chaos and her other works at: https://georgiebc.wordpress.com/2013/05/24/binding-chaos/.

After she has whet your intellectual appetite with Binding Chaos, I can also recommend, https://georgiebc.wordpress.com/2014/05/01/witches-and-how-they-are-silenced/. Women will love the work, men will better understand women, and both will develop a better perspective of the field medicine.
