Easier to push than pull. Easier to fix the blame than the problem. Push a blame campaign, incite drama, draw media. But historically, hinder change for anyone’s positive results. Pull together for a fix–or is your ‘fix’ vengeance? Squanto helped grateful people, thankful people. You focus on the corrupt, and thereby not only disdain any remedy, but throw out the baby with the bathwater. I’m not your stereotyped enemy, and I’m not on your agenda mosh pit’s side either.
