The U.S v. Bad Creativity

Your honor, I bring before you and those of the court, the case of the U.S. v. "Bad Creativity." For every moment that is spent being creative with fear in mind, I ask the jury to consider the first and most impressive piece of evidence.

For every, "What if," spoken or thought by Americans, at times of fear and doubt, they have taken the proactive part of being creative for all the wrong reasons. With the freedom to be creative in the first place, these self-destructive choices have led our citizens to experience "bad creativity" instead of "good creativity."

Conflict and chaos can happen. Why had these victims not previously thought, "Well, there is a chance that...," and followed up with, "And I understand the potential reality and risks, and would still like to take the risk and attempt reaching the outcome."?

When facing a challenge - something that can lead to a negative response in our minds - we are often creative. Whether or not we know it, we are often creating. Here's an example:

You've got a new job opportunity! - "Good Creativity" would prompt a person to say out loud or to themselves, "I would like to apply for this job. Should I ultimately receive an offer, I intend to learn a lot, gain experience and income, build relationships, and connect with my next opportunity. The potential is unlimited." "Bad Creativity" could alternatively prompt a person to say or state, "What if I apply and don't get an interview? What if I get the interview, but don't get the job?" What if I get the job and don't like it?" What if I get the job, like it, but get fired for non-compliance or because of downsizing?" With all of that "creativity in mind," I'm surprised more Americans aren't using their "Good Creativity" by painting, writing, performing, and designing. Perhaps they're too consumed with "Bad Creativity."

Kids, most of what happens in our lives prompts us to respond with creativity - whether you like it or not and whether you know it or not. Until now. That is, of course, we attempt to fight biology and prevent our imagination from taking wing.

Therefore, I'd like to bring a lawsuit against "Bad Creativity" on behalf of the United States. "Bad Creativity" is responsible for making Americans feel poorly and for motivating them to either take foolish action or not act at all. The sole "principal in the first" is one of humanity's most wanted, "Ignorance." What say you?
