AEM-Centralised Administration (1286 words)
However, a centralised administration does not mean that there won't be any variety or different ideas (often locally generated) being tried out in different towns and regions, and even in different workplaces, preschools, schools, and universities.
In other words, a centralised administration is more logical, and it helps to keep everyone on the same side, going in the same direction, and working together (Our contemporary power-seeking political system serves to keep people on different sides and inhibiting the actions of each other).
Even though the centralised administration will be much bigger than the federal government and its departments currently are, it will be much smaller in comparison to all the people that are currently required to manage each business and each local, regional, and federal governments and their departments.

The motto in the lubrication industry is "...a little bit often" and this is a far better way to lubricate machinery than to grease it daily, weekly or even monthly.
Automatic centralised lubrication systems apply a small amount of grease or oil to each part every few hours whilst it is operating, thereby maintaining the optimum amount of lubricant in the bearing, slide or open gear etc.
