To Think Or not to Think.That Is The Question

Animals have a simple life.They run on instinct.They do not have the capacity to conceptualize.They just live out their animal instinctive existence,following their animal natures to reproduce and hunt for food and prey and be preyed upon by other animals.Humans on the other hand do have choices.The main one is,to think or not to think,to engage in cognitive activity or allow their minds to vegetate in an unfocused state of fog,prey to their unconscious fears and imaginings,wandering around without direction or purpose and prey to others who will be quite happy to do their thinking for them at a price - at the expense of the unthinking slaves who place themselves in their care and power.We call such people who will take on such a role as demagogues,politicians,carers,sociopaths.The unthinking masses who have abdicated thought to the experts are in a thrall to a tyranny we sometimes refer to as democracy.In any case a basic requirement of human survival is thought,It guides the actions of thinking men and leads them if done properly to a full and worthwile existence of meaningful activity in furtherance of their existence,in the enjoyment of acheivment.In order to be able to conduct their lives on this level individuals have to understand what the requirements for their survival depend upon and know what threatens it.Reason has to be the guiding principle and man must be left free to excercise it unhindered by force from others.For this purpose government is instituted to protect and defend the individual from the use of force by others who would seek to gain an unearned value at the expense of thsoe who have achieved it by effort.This is the sole purpose of government.Its function and purpose has been corrupted and co opted by enemies of freedom and liberty who have turned the whole purpose of government on its head and used it to rob individuals of their freedom through taxation redistribution of wealth,regulation and imposition of non objective law based on socialist collectivist principles.
