@tycho - You are jumping the gun.People don't spend time discovering the 'I'.They rarely spend time on self-reflection and when they do few take appropriate action. In turn peoples thoughts are rarely their own,so yes it is a form of 'mind control'.Before I get bashed,think about it... Entrepreneurs survive with or without the governments help.The problem is entrepreneurship is a foreign concept to many and is clouded with risk. It all comes back to the individual.The role leaders should play is to unite its followers to pursue national goals together. A problem is developing work - employment equilibrium because of technology. Globally,employees don't seem to realise technology is eroding so many jobs and will continue to.The jobs of 2020 haven't even been created.That's why I keep saying the most important skill of our time is the skill to learn. Uncertainty is certain.Let go

Culture, is not only spontaneous in change, but it is also shared, and communicated.
So, human behavior is governed by cultural factors.
So any description of behavior must be regarded with respect to ideal conditions.
These ideals must correspond to the basic needs of Man.
Behavior must be measured against something. Otherwise there'd be no order.
Sorry for jumping the gun.

No. Technology isn't eroding jobs. It is transforming them.
The most important thing for us to know is how jobs are being transformed and making the appropriate changes. This is a government's role.

I think what you've described on culture is great and that is the way forward. Culture should work for us not against us. When it comes to economics,globally we've failed miserably!I use a simple definition:Economics - The allocation of scare resources because it derives from economize. I agree,its a government's role to help people transition to the changing jobs.How do you think we should go about it? Uncertainty is certain.Let go

@ChessMaster, the commodity being economized is time.
It is scarce, because of people not working.
Government participates in increasing resources through encouraging work.
We need to:
1. Increase citizen interaction and directed participation over market networks.
2. Generate more ideas on our economic model, and to promote their use in institutions, inclusive of the government.
3. Put these ideas to practice on a personal level.

Or entrepreneurs could design and sell self replicating products, that would awaken and optimize existing networks.
I can imagine a product for each and every institution and organization. We can design these programs to create mutual effects for all parties involved.
Such an approach would quicken rates of change in behavior and institutions.
In simple terms, the current problems we are facing aren't 'real' problems, and policies have been misdirected.
Problems of education costs, access to medical care, work and employment, food security, and celebration of culture, now lie squarely on the ICT firm.
I believe this is the way for peace and prosperity in Kenya and the whole world.

I believe this is the way for peace and prosperity in Kenya and the whole world. I disagree a bit the problems lie on the people but there is no better solution like ICT to tackle this problem. To be honest this is something I think about all the time.From how culture affects adoption of ICT,to education levels,to uses of ICT.The first thing that should change is how people view ICT and its benefits. Uncertainty is certain.Let go

Why do people have a problem? In what way? I think I should have explained it better.I meant the problems you've stated above don't rely completely on ICT but people also have to change their behaviours because even if all ICT plans are laid out and people don't adopt them the problem will persist. How can we tackle the problems using ICT to reach a good mass of Kenyans? Uncertainty is certain.Let go
