The father of neo-liberalism and laissez-faire economics , Milton Friedman , said that " Only a crisis- real or perceived- produces real change. Our basic function is to develop alternatives to existing policies, to keep them alive and available until the politically impossible becomes politically inevitable."

When a system goes bad it's reflected throughout, agreeable alternative realities can be started
at any level of society,and will invariably scale to match their harmony to the people
experiencing them.

Correspondent Kathy K. recently elucidated a powerful concept: social
fractals. We typically think of fractals--structures that are scale-invariant--as features of
Nature or finance. For example, a coastline has the same characteristically ragged appearance
from 100 feet, 1,000 feet and 10,000 feet in altitude. It is scale-invariant, i.e. its characteristics
remain constant whether it is viewed on a small, medium or large scale.

This is how Kathy described social fractals:
<DIR>"This dishonest, self-serving individual behavior is a fractal of what is happening in our
society at large: dishonest and self-serving people are extending and pretending, and
their complicity keeps the system going."
</DIR>The concept of social fractals can be illustrated with a simple example. If the individuals in a
family unit are all healthy, thrifty, honest, caring and responsible, then how could that family
be dysfunctional, spendthrift, venal and dishonest? It is not possible to aggregate individuals
into a family unit and not have that family manifest the self-same characteristics of the
individuals. This is the essence of fractals.

If we aggregate healthy, thrifty, honest, caring and responsible families into a community, how
can that community not share these same characteristics?
And if we aggregate these communities into a nation, how can that nation not exhibit these
same characteristics?
