Monica,

Change is only going to happen when the narrative totally breaks down. Yes, it is all swirling into the abyss, but these vultures are feeding in a system that is well past the point of no return.

For the next paradigm, three points to consider;

Government is the social analogy of the central nervous system. The function of which isn't to control society, but to sustain it. Just as the function of the central nervous system is regulate and order the various impulses, desires, appetites, etc. and defend the body and its kin.

Banking and money are the social analogy of blood and the circulation system. The function of which should be to regulate the flows of resources around the social entity, for its own greater good, not siphon all extractable value out of the community, to further the egos of those able to do so. Public banking is as essential as public government. The monarchists used to say "mob rule" could never work, but it does at least as well as the private forms of government

The military industrial complex has come to resemble an autoimmune disease. Think that through.

We all have bodies. They are actually far more complex and evolved than our social institutions. If we can get people to recognize the same processes at work in society, as in the organic bodies of the inhabitants of the society, it would prove a useful and broadly realized template to futher evolve our social body.
