Israeli Kindergarten. Dual-income couples often arrived late to pick up their children. As a result, the kindergarten implemented a rule that parents would face a fine if they were late; however, even though this introduced a penalty system, it also led to more delays in pickup times. By replacing feelings of guilt with money, paying a fee for being late became the new norm. After recognizing the mistake and removing the fine system, what happened? More parents started arriving late. When money becomes involved, the exchange of value fundamentally changes the nature of the relationship. And once that change occurs, it doesn’t revert. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Why were the Beatles born in Liverpool? At the time, it was estimated that there were over 500 bands in the Liverpool area. One reason for this musical explosion is the presence of a U.S. military base at Burtonwood, located 24 kilometers from Liverpool.

Historically, wars and military installations have significantly impacted cultural development. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
