My take on Catch-22.

For me catch –22 basically explain the type of people in this world. To start with humans are of two types i.e. SANE and INSANE.

Most of the humans in this world, who are supposed to be SANE are in fact INSANE. They make almost 90% of worlds human population and they are used by 7-8% of SANE people whom they call INSANE. With such a large number at their disposal, these INSANE people should rule the world but there is a catch INSANE people cant rule. These people accept the rules as they are and never question the necessity of these rules. Any one with brains, any one willing to think, any one willing to challenge the establishments for oppressive rules is enemy to them.
SANE human’s can be of following types,

  • Innocent (Yossarian)
  • Leaders (Colonel Cathecart)
  • Businessmen (Milo Minderbinder)
  • With Lots of Brains (Orr)

Innocent SANEs, they are the most courageous, righteous people. They know that something is seriously wrong around them, they question the obscure rules but they never realize that INSANE humans surround them. They are revolutionary kind of humans who want seriously to do something that is good for them without knowing what to do and how to do it.

Leader SANEs are most useless of SANE humans. They are of no use to any one, neither they do any thing good for themselves or for any one else. They are basically good for nothing. They know that most others around them are INSANE and they want to utilize the conditions for there good but end up screwing everyone without doing any thing good for themselves.
Businessmen SANEs, they are the most successful of all kinds of humans. They know that most humans arround them are INSANE and those who are not, they know how to make them. They are manipulative, shrewd and know exactly how to fool others for personnel profit. They rule the world, proxy way. They are mainly afraid of innocent SANEs.

SANE with lots of brain, always play in background, never allowing others to know what they are thinking or doing. They behave in such a ways that everyone thinks that they are the most INSANE humans. They are mainly doing this so that everyone should ignore them and give them time to prepeare for the master stroke. They play the real big games , which rarely a few can understand.

Then again we have those humans, who lie on the boundry of SANITY and INSANITY. Those who are in love (Netaley). They have the right spirits, motivation, objectives even ready to question the authorities for rules which they think are obscure, this makes them SANE but love itself is INSANITY.
