The Web of Life, Fritjof Capra

The Web of Life  should help you to think out the big picture we have to bear in mind as we analyze our problems, our special stresses of today's economic times.  How did this economic tragedy come to the world?

In trying to understand this complex world we live in, we have to learn to grasp patterns, rather than break problems down to the tiny parts.  Everything is interconnected and one influences another.   A number of people are discussing this on the internet, beginning with Inside Job.

  If you are going to watch Inside Job, by Charles Ferguson, you have to keep in mind that need to discern patterns as we try to improve our world.   

There are a million questions about the influence of, unions, media, political back slapping, bills written by lobbyists, increasing legislation, instead of reviewing and changing old legislation, etc, lack of term limits in elected jobs and appointed jobs, including Judges, and members of local boards, etc.  Where are the problems collecting and why, what can we do to break up the old way of thinking?
