Perhaps. However the pursuit of pleasantries or
desireables and the advancement of the elusive
"General Good" are rarely synonymous. Especially
when confronted with truely profound challenges.
In my opinion the loyal opposition is largely
of the armchair variety. Content to snipe and
complain but unwilling to act, move or engage
in true reform. Basically they are playing for
advantage at the expense of the whole.
Such is life on occaision. The only response
ultimately is to turn one's back on that which
one regards as counter-evolutionary and work on
real alternatives and potential solutions. As in
route around, create new pathways, found bold
and unusual opportunities for fellow citizens.
