An Analysis Of How The Consciousness Seen In East Point Georgia Was Fomented

The two videos below show two different sets of "equal human beings" and their relationship with the provider of their sustenance - The Government.

I don't care to focus on the people directly, making an indictment against them.
Instead I would like to focus on the SYSTEM within which their lives.

The primary point of scrutiny that I choose to appraise this system by is one question:

Does the system that these equal human beings are bound to provide COMPETENCY DEVELOPMENT for the people?

The more common appraisal of such a system if focused on the demand side question which inspects how effectively it cares for "the least of these".

Everyone who seeks to validate the efficacy of their claims that they care for "these people" per the policies that they support should commit themselves to appraise their beliefs by the balance of these two points:

1. How well does their system care for those who are in need?
2. How well does their system build these people up so that they are made competent enough to trade their skills in exchange for the compensation necessary for them to live at the desired standard?

Notice the first video in which the woman who is so overjoyed by the fact that she received a piece of paper from the government.  Her personal hopes was placed into her dreams of what this piece of paper will translate into for her life.  

Unfortunately there is a big disconnect between her hopes and what this paper actually represents within the context of the system.   The paper gives her a chance of having her name entered on a waiting list.  There are only about 300 openings on this waiting list.  For the overwhelming majority of the 13,000 people who received a piece of paper - their hopes that have been invested will be wasted hope.

These people are being used by those who have erected this system.   The people who are in power locally tapped into these people's emotions for the last several decades that I have been focusing upon this area of Metro Atlanta.  Even upon their victory in having people in place those who control the system have no inclination on accepting accountability for what they preside over.

By abstracting the people's fortunes from a central focus on what they do on a daily basis and switch it over to being a function of who is in control over the central government in Washington DC - the consciousness of permanent struggle against external forces that they never seem to gain hold of is infused within their consciousness.

Central to the notion of competency development is to have this obligation focused upon the individual and having it cascade upward.
