Working together to solve problems

 
The @lantis Learning Community is a group of people dedicated to discovering new knowledge and then teaching that knowledge to others.

We've started a Linkedin Group - Atlantis Learning Community.  

The Community is Exclusive and Private.

Exclusive in that you have to be more willing to find the right decision than to be right.

Private in that you have to have to feel safe in the community.

Here is where we discuss the important questions we have to face.  But rather than just debate the points with no expectations of change, the Atlantis Learning Community use the Facts then Conclusions Approach. 

This means that we first discuss the facts.  We make sure we agree on the facts before we start talking about conclusions.

The Conclusions we are working on now are:

-  Capitalism works best with a effective but minimul government.
-  The Fox News and Rush Limbaugh approach to media hurts the USA

Our objective is to come up with answers to improve the general welfare of the community.
