(Dys)functional Assault Weapons:


There really does seem to be a lot of it around nowadays eh ..

dysfunction that is.

Decision-makers in our government are suffering from dysfunctional decision making - perhaps caused by high levels of COin their city work-place air.

Dysfunctional criminals are behaviorally corrupted into increasingly violent assaults by particulate poisons that contaminate their locality's breathing gasses .. air pollution increases violence - of course they then further fuel their behavioral dysfunctions by imbibing dysfunctioning opioids.

Dysfunctional families malfunction inside dysfunctional High-Rise buildings while their children attend dysfunctional underfunded schools .. while there they are councelled but not instructed by paid staff members.

- Strange to say but you don't hear much about dysfunctional semi-auto rifles eh - that would be because they are wholly designed & refined with the requirement that THEY WORK - and if a component fails the owner can get it replaced.

We have dysfunctional sewage & waste water systems, dysfunctional public housing, dys-functioned waterways and supply pipes, neglected & dysfunctional electricity supply grids, - dysfunctional public transport networks .. all being managed to maximize profits for the directors.
Out of consideration I won't mention dysfunctional Law Enforcement 'Services' nor our struggling Health Services .. as my intimate experience with my GP, cardiologists & technicians has been superb - and so far successful 😅 - Gawd .. according to my Driving Licence - I'm functional 'til I'm 80 .. but when I asked Nigel my Doc for a written guarantee he just laughed ..

- Why don't we citizens - as owners of this dysfunctional list - replace the managers of these dysfunctional organizations for NOT DOING THE JOBS THEY ARE PAID FOR?

- Perhaps the answer may be found in the efficient and fully functioning advertising, marketing, and public relations departments (known in my group as 'BULLSHIT ARTISTS') - set-up by the profit takers.

Note: While traditional public relations and advertising may rely on altering the presentation of the facts, - "spin" often implies the use of disingenuousdeceptive, and highly manipulative tactics.

Now here's a Dysfunctional example ..  days ago ( a Friday) on State Highway One, - I slowly passed a roadside array of FOUR "Impact Attenuator Trucks" ("crash cushions") all lit-up and brightly flashing:
- That's FIVE in a line (including a 'work truck' carrying plastic cones) - all impeding traffic movement - I drove towards & safely past one lone worker operating a pile-driver off the road behind a steel permanent roadside "armco" guardrail barrier - North of Amberley.

We need a new story .. The only answer to Aneurin Bevan's  question seems to be .. That you can fool some of the people most of the time.

- To keep company with "Dysfunctional" (impaired functioning) .. I reckon a good match in this era would be 'Deluded' (mislead into false beliefs) - there seems to be plenty of that around if you listen to talk-back radio at all - & a third companion 'D' would have to be "Demented" (unable to think clearly) eh.

 I think I've 'developed' the 21st century 3-Ds of Democracy.

Rod Comments: Hi Marty

I see the Health & Safety crap on a daily basis down here.  On Friday they were doing road works on a side road, 100 metres from the intersection with the highway.  It is a controlled intersection with compulsory stop signs and concrete islands which effectively prevent high speed cornering.  The highway was blocked for about 200 metres either side of the intersection with hundreds of road cones, two stop/go girls, warning signs, and trucks with flashing lights, and a single lane passage.  All they need to do was have some cones and staff at the side road, either side of the road works on a very lightly used road.  No, they had to block a main highway for several hours.

The same company also does roadside cleaning from time to time (two staff along the berm with spikes and rubbish bags).  This involves all the crap signage, two trucks (front and rear) with extra signs and flashing lights, and another truck for the rubbish bags.  That’s three vehicles and five staff to pick up a few bits of rubbish on the grass berm.

I wonder if the H&S wallies have cones, signs, and flashing lights around their sharpened pencils, or their pieces of paper labelled ‘Warning, sharp edges’?

Cheers
