All institutions, whether they arose from specific aims (e.g. gain money/power from selling product A) or 'just became' (e.g. India's caste system), attempt to extend their natural life span beyond their initial startup usefulness.

Those people within an institution are of two types; those who accept it as natural, normal, undying; those that use the institution to further their own thoughts which have arisn from only knowiing the institution.

Looking at an institution from the outside also gives rise to two types of observer. First is those who have sympathy, an emotional view, with the institution's external 'misssion statements'. These may well accept the mission statement as a 'perfection' and will be drawn into the institutional ideas. The second type of outside observer has questions that the institution's insiders

Any individual's decision to embrace or reject an institution is dependant upon their schooling, indoctrination, education. It is the definition and implementation of these three concepts that direct my, and your, life.
