10. Downheavals
page 152
Downheavals are changes for the better
- the opposite of ‘upheavals’.
This brand new word was coined to indicate
positive and welcome change in
contrast to many changes that turn out to be nothing
more than moving the
proverbial deckchairs about on the Titanic.
Although sometimes necessary and
often uncomfortable, change for political
reasons often fails to bring improvements and usually
introduces new problems.
