Albert Einstein on problem solving

We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.

Henry Ford on problem solving

Most people spend more time and energy going around problems than in trying to solve them.

Albert Einstein on solving problems

If I had an hour to solve a problem, I'd spend 55 minutes thinking about the problem, and 5 minutes thinking about solutions.

Kevin Duffy on averting a civil war in the U.S.

This country is headed towards a civil war for many reasons, but binary thinking is a huge part. We need to work on 3 things, imo:

1. Stop questioning the motives of your opponents. Let's face it, 99.9% of our friends are peaceful people you'd want as neighbors and all they want is a prosperous, safe country to live in. 
2. Look for common ground. 
3. Think out of the box, i.e. look to solve problems by repealing laws, not adding them. 

I understand this is a different approach, but we need some fresh thinking. I can think of a lot of areas where we could apply this method, including abortion, foreign policy, and government counterfeiting (the Fed).

These solutions will be uncomfortable for BOTH parties.
