  • I think the reason why GIS can't pollinate the public's need for vital information is because the queen Bee keeps the workers and the drones close to the hive, drawing nectar only from one flower. All the while, the queen is re-directing her workers to build her own personal hive as opposed supporting the colony at-large.

    Beehives are run as collectives; each bee serving its purpose for the common good of the hive; which in turn has its place in the natural order of its community.

    However, when a queen bee re-directs the efforts of the workers and drones toward self-preservation instead of selfless service of the community through the hive; the workers suffer, the drones suffer, the hive suffers, the immediate community suffers and the ultimate impact of the hive on the community becomes irrelevant.

    In the case of GIS, it's clear to all of us in the general public that the hive is controlled by a queen whose goals are inconsistent with those established by government; which is why we all see GIS as an irrelevant and non-credible source of information regarding government.

    To put it in "bee-hive" vernacular - Winnie the Pooh won't be sticking his head into the honey-less GIS hive anytime soon – Apiarist
