mmm i know that for consultants, if you cannot convince someone, you confuse them and make things complicated so that your customers will rely on u for solution. hahaha. :P not a bad tactic to b honest.

actually i do know of someone who always loves to show people how complicated he can solve a simple problem. :T he ends up wasting too much time....including OUR time. 

&lt;br/&gt;

In our world, common sense is no longer that common. Yes, a lot of people are lacking common sense now. What appear to be something obvious, has become something &#039;strange&#039;, &#039;weird&#039; or &#039;abnormal&#039; for people now....and they would avoid going that direction. Funny huh? 

Or perhaps it&#039;s becoming too competitive out there so people always think if it&#039;s THAT simple, anyone would do it. So it must be something very complicated :P 

but yeah.... wealth can be part of the cause too. Coz the wealthy people tend to think too much!</description>

		<description>My take: Simple = practical. Practical = common sense. Common sense = taking the least amount of resources to achieve something. That&#039;s why the wealthier one is, the harder it is to practice common sense. 

America for instance is one of the planet&#039;s wealthiest societies. It is also its biggest polluter and arguably its most demanding consumer society. The mere cost of a burger set meal&#039;s packaging materials is enough to feed someone in Sudan. The price of a cup of organically grown coffee enough to feed a whole family.

So the loss of &quot;common sense&quot; could be a reflection of wealth that have increased over the decades.</description>

		<description>I realized this some years ago that people like to make things complicated. So that the problems appear to be very complicated. After that, they solve the complicated problems and take the credits for it. Sometimes they can become hero because of that... What&#039;s wrong with this world? 

Maybe because of that, we purposely no longer wants to solve simple tasks even we know that is simple and we wants to show people how good we&#039;re to solve the complicated stuff. People reward that what, so what to do?
