Having knowledge is a lot like being in love, you feel safe with it, you are happier with it, you miss it when it's not there and you are sad when you loose it.
Everyday we are losing knowledge. We're not asking the right questions or worse we're not asking any questions. Most people I would imagine don't even have any questions to ask. Life simply rolls along, they go to work, they pay their taxes and they assume that someone smarter than them is taking care of things. Have you ever asked where your taxes go? Is the first time you even look at a bond measure or tax is in the voting booth?
These are the problems we face, a majority of the people who are not quite sure what's going on. The ability to get the knowledge that would allow them to make informed decisions is out there among the mud and double-speak. It takes time and effort to get to and that's where I think many people fall short.
Motivation.
What drives you to get out in the world and figure things out? I have a natural sense of curiosity. I like to know why, and if I don't find the answer acceptable or worse I find it incomplete I dig deeper. Maybe you should too.
