We need more exx, Ake, but I think terib believes he is right, and that his view makes sense.

I already know that we all arrange what we know in order that it make sense to us.(Gestalts - patterns,shapes,forms). Knowledge that doesn't 'fit', is explained oddly,contortedly, explained away, or, as i've found to be so very common, just ignored (doesn't get on the dial).

My point about wages being kept down (to make business competitive) conflicting with the need for them to rise (to buy to keep the economy growing) is one that's been just ignored.

There are others.

The fact is that most of us do not know how our own society actually wotks (knowledge missing), but we still have to make sense. However much is missing, we still have to make sense; so te picture looks curious to those who know more or different.

it's just know use saying that it doesn't matter how much you know - of course it does. (I just wish I wasn't so ignorant.)
