Clear the way for the rest of us (Part 1)
All of us are haughtily successful at arguing, discussing, and objecting; objecting to our problems, which are so many. No society in this world is void of problems, but some societies deal with them to find out solutions, and this is the mechanism that secured some nations progress, whereas others remained standstill enjoying arguing, and showing off the skills of objections.
Do you know what happens in this case? The fact is that we, on our way for seeking solutions to education, unemployment, bureaucracy, social equality, and mass and individuals rights, drown in argumentation, adding, by so doing, an extra problem to the basket of our problems, that is, the problem of arguing, complaining, and frustration, without moving even one of our muscles to march realistically ahead.
And we should not believe that the solutions are monopolized by the elite writers or thinkers, because many gifted people can also reach the same solutions, or even much better. Therefore, seeking solutions through listening to various opinions might open a new and serious way for us. Let me please clarify more…
Thinkers who deeply indulge in analytical philosophy are like skilful football players who use all their skills in keeping the ball and controlling it in a charming and wonderful way, but it gets complicated and become awkward, whereas the direct logician is like a player who only knows how to run with the ball straight to the goal, as scoring goals in football is the only solution.
Likewise, solutions should not be left 'only' to official administrations and their committees, because most of them are only executors and bound to bureaucracy, which they see as a major administrative tool for organizing procedures. Bureaucracy, by nature, curbs the free imagination, and restricts the individual initiatives that lead to innovation and create novel ideas free from any predetermined plans. Bureaucratic plans do not correspond to the elastic situations as happens in football games, or in the plans of private companies, or that of independent groups of individuals.
Therefore, planners in recent decades became well aware of an important fact, that is, to keep the work of official administrations done with the best parameters possible, coupled with applying the standards of the quality control. In order that society sets out to secure solutions to all the problems in the fastest and most efficient ways possible, recent theories recommended opening the way wide to individual participation, or voluntary nonprofit private participation in society; this has been, indeed, a crucial way out.
