First meeting forked from Prose Fusion, 2023-10-16, with Bill A, Jordan, Pete.
Greetings Messrs Anderson and Kaminski.
So what is Governance anyway?
The word “Govern” derives from the Latin meaning “To Steer”. It begs the question:
How do we Individually And Collectively navigate our Vessel(s) towards The Goal?
Having fixed our Aim, how do we get from Where We Are to Where We Are Going?
Governance is a Core Function of The Body of Society. It is one of the primary Organ Systems of The Body that must be stacked up, aligned, and co-operated in order for a Union to move away from pain, suffering, and dysfunction, towards its Destiny.
It is one System, composed of Sub-Systems, and nested inside the Super-System of a Social Organism.
