Organizing for the Conditioned Response

There are two types of behavioral responses to stimulus: reflexive and conditioned.

Reflexive is a physiological response like blinking the eye in response to an impact stimulus. Conditioned is a learned response that occurs with an event expected to correlate with the reflexive response.

Our conditined, learned, response to our current economic crisis, for example, is to regard what is recognized to be a problem to be solved as a normative cycle--the business cycle. We have a process, or procedural knowledge, of the problem that modifies our reflexive response, our behavior, with an organized learning that is operantly conditioned.

Even though the reflexive response is to retribute the value lost, the value of your work, your savings, which is being interpreted by the experts as being an arbitrary abstraction subject to loss, the conditioned response is to allow the solution to cycle into the recovery phase, creating an engram of organized memory that is associated with McCain's recent cue for recall of the memory trace by saying, "We are a nation for creating wealth, not just spreading it around."

While the diminished value is the factor of sharing the wealth, it is, however, the determining variable for solution to the problem. The organized memory trace, the conditioned response, is to allow for the problem to be applied as the solution in the form of a popular consent, or self-dtermination.

It is time for a self-determined re-cognition of the problem by reviewing it.

If the problem reoccurs, it has not been solved. If we are conditioned to believe that being subject to perennial cycles of deprivation and depreciation of our productive value instills the strength of our patriotic conviction, that is both true and false. We are likely to believe in something we had to suffer for, creating a cognitive dissonance that reinforces the conditioned response.

While the conditioned organizational response is for a top-down bailout in which The People must wait for the solution of the problem to "trickle down," despite that the theory and practice is antecedent to the recurring crisis, The People will learn that it is an effective solution even though the crisis cycles into recovery without it. Using the problem as the solution is falsely confirmed, or learned and stored in memory as knowledge. The conditioned response is mistakenly declared as empirical knowledge.

It is time to relearn, recondition, the response. Joe the Plummer is the classic condition where he expresses fear of what will free him to patriotically pursue life, liberty and happiness.

The conditioned response is to fear the real solution.

With productive capacity well in hand and soundly established into reliable organized technologies, the next step is to share the wealth it produces, which will prevent the recurring algorythm of crisis, not cause it. The natural tendency to pluralism is a threat to the consolidation of power, and that power relies heavily on the conditioned response stored in organizational memory as the experience, the knowledge, of the expected outcome.

It is time to recondition the response, and the expected outcome.

That starts with this election cycle.
