We ALL long for a world where all the bad guys wear black hats and all the good guys are cops.
Sadly, and I don't how to break this to you guys who admire Chuck, that's not the world we live in and even if Chuch Norris were made KING, that's not the world he could make our of what we've got either.
Human nature folks.
It has an ugly side, too.
We all understand that humans never can measure up to ideals. Ideals are normative things to be striven for. If you become satisfied with being lost in the 'shades of gray,' content with whatever the status quo is.....then the likelihood of improvement dissipates.
I don't think we are searching for a way to explain what we see. We are search for a way to improve where we are.
If we don't actually KNOW what we're seeing (for example if you think giving money to the richest people on earth is a form of socialism) then searching for a way to improve our lot is going to be one hell of a lot more difficult, though, don't you think?
I can't sign onto a team that thinks what is happening is socialism, because if they don't know that socialism is, how can I know if they know what anything means?
I sign onto their team, for example, and they tell me they want one thing, only in thier universe the world they're using means something completely unexpected.
You're lawyer for criminies sakes, Tech, how can you dismiss the importance of words in problem solving tasks?
I mean, I expect you, of all people,(one of the annointed priests of our social sciences) to understand the difference between socialism and this whole fraud we're involved in.
