FLORIDA MAKES OFF GRID LIVING ILLEGAL – Mandates All Homes Must Be Connected To An Electricity Grid “One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we’ve been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozled has captured us. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we’ve been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back.” - Carl Sagan ( collective-evolution/2014/03/09/florida-makes-off-grid-living-illegal-mandates-all-homes-must-be-connected-to-an-electricity-grid/ ) We must approach this difficult period with a mutual caring and tolerance for diversity that are the essential foundations of the healthy societies we hope to create. Even as we seek to remain centered in our core values and to build alliances with those who share such values, we must be constantly aware that we are engaged in an act of creation, for which there is no blueprint. We are all learners in an unfolding process, requiring that we look with a critical eye and an open mind for the kernel of truth in each idea and the spark of goodness in each person. We are embarking on what may be the most profound change of course in human history, and it requires that we bring to bear the full creative potential of our species. ~ David Korten neweconomy.net/publications/lectures/korten/david/creating-a-post-corporate-world
