If you want us to give you open-ended answers, you need to start asking open-ended questions. Don’t expect open-ended answers to closed-ended questions.

Conversely, when we ask you a closed-ended question, please don’t provide us with a open-ended answer.

What a great description of the Federal government’s lack of ability to solve problems. Or actually, anyone’s lack of ability to solve their problems. Another bit of wisdom from uncleFred.

I’m just cataloging a whole list of details and adding it to their profile while they talk. In negotiation and diplomacy, remaining silent in order to goad the other person into talking up a storm and exposing their secrets, is a time honored tradition.

Of course if you were seeking to solve their problem, that would be different. But if you were seeking information for your own self benefit and the benefit of your alliance members, then it’s different.

Nobody knows what piece of information will aid in fighting the Left. Nobody knows what piece of information will herald an existential threat in the future. Most people sit in their bubble and are content with being fed info regurgitated from the bowels of the gatekeepers of elitist education. And look where that has brought a mighty nation called America. Does it look good yet?

And people who know the metaphysics of Taoism know what I’m talking about.

However, if there is really a point, something which must be communicated in order that something important happen…we have a problem.

Of course, generally the narratives are not intricate, the observations are not subtle, and the cascades of details are merely rehashing the same sequence of event for the nth time.

Part of my profession is to listen to very complex problems, understand them and the person or organization that is experiencing the problem, determine what constitutes a solution, and help my client implement one of several solutions based on their priorities.

In my experience, when a woman launches into an “intricate narrative” she is not seeking a solution and merely wishes to express her frustration. In most cases she wants you listen to her until she winds down and then agree that there is no solution and commiserate with her fate. There are usually many obvious solutions to her problem, but each one requires her to make a decision which she views as more unpleasant than doing nothing.

Parker

I think we can deduce our political problems are the result of such imbalance. Democrats are full of yin and its longing to legislate security. Republicans are mostly yang in understanding security only comes with a willingness to engage in risk which produces unequal results.
