In Britain… causing a stir, causing a rawkus or down right yelling… are common aspects of the political process.

In America, “iron triangles,” where money pays for political allegiance is often considered public knowledge and typically dictates the reality of politics.

Yet, in Saudi Arabia… a royal family still rules, through DNA.

So where is the common ground? Politics and decision making! Because in any government decisions have to be made, societies change, cultures change and life changes, too. But who decides how things change? Who decides when and if we allocate resources to our oceans? Or if we save animals from going extinct? And at the end of the day, how do these decisions go into law?

And furthermore, who decides how much money that this country will borrow next? And I’ve brought this topic up before… but when will our nation end this rhetoric over creating jobs? And start a conversation about automating jobs? Or will some of these political conversations ever reach a definitive climax? Whereby, Tokyo, Japan has already switched to predominantly using vending machines vs store clerks.

And take the issue of race in America, for example.

Whereby, in my opinion, you can fight against the prejudice of, “racism,” all you want and heck, you can even stand up against racism, you can mix cultures, you can mix ethnic groups, create different social settings, whatever… but at the end of the day, when race and competition are intertwined then there’s always turmoil. In fact, even in the utmost Utopian future competition itself mixed with ethnic diversity often feels like a never ending dispute. Whereby, how can someone favor one person without neglecting another? And what is, "winning," when the loser is so often the recipient of affirmative action or welfare?

So you have these political disputes that never seem to end… and in my opinion some of these topics may never come to a close. But... even if these debates go on forever... how will that discussion change our society? Or, will our ancestors talk about, “race and job creation,” 200 years from now? And what about 500 years from now? Because personally, I would hope that they didn’t continue this discussion for another 10 years let alone another half millenia! Because, personally, I would feel poorly if they did and in fact I would feel like we as a culture didn’t do our part as a society if that future were to take place. How would you feel if this society remained so stagnant; socially, politically and culturally speaking… as to debate, “race and job creation," 200 years from today?

But that’s why I bring up this concept of, “alternative evolution,” today… because our society does have choices and furthermore, those past choices have built pyramids and crossed oceans in the past!

So, specifically… what is, “alternative evolution?”

“Alternative evolution,” is a phrase that I use to describe alternative paths of occupational evolution/bio-evolution and how often do people even think about the magnitude of some of the smallest decisions in our society, today? Particularly in terms of, “bio-evolution/ occupational evolution or alternative evolution(s)?”

For example, the combination of politics and music.

Whereby, in America today music dealing with politics is often considered, “taboo or overbearing,” by the general public… but why?

And what if things were different? What if music wasn’t considered taboo when it's made for the sake of politics? What if songs dealing with issues like; gun violence, the environment or gender equality... got radio play in political settings? We allow endless financing in terms of issues such as but not limited to; abortion, gun laws and campaign financing... but we don't allow artists to freely express themselves in the mainstream? Furthermore, a change in that political landscape alone could impact a number of things from; "the war on drugs," to, "affordable housing," to, "the American prison system," and that 1 change alone, in my opinion, would constitute, “an alternative evolutionary path,” so to speak. Or more simply put, what I mean to point out is that small decisions like mixing music and politics, albeit seemingly small, often hold a much greater impact upon society than people think. Also these decisions have tremendous effects in terms of exponentially changing society and what we as a culture reward both psychologically and biologically, IE swinging a baseball bat.
