Great post, thanks.

You cover the emotional reactions of a population well and I, like you and many others, am frustrated to see politics winning over statesmanship. It seems the question of right versus wrong in the frame of “greater good” continues to be ignored. Excessive lobbying sways the debate and, however unfortunate, affects public opinion.

Another compelling point that you touch obliquely is the evidence that we, as a populace, wait for our system of government to lead the way. In my opinion, individuals should ultimately control decision making and that starts with personal choice.

Please continue your crusade with @Build2Sustain. Collaborate with the fine work being done here at @Aribra and others. Individuals like you are leading the way and affecting many of us who make better choices daily. You are having an impact and we are pay it forward through our actions, many of which go unreported, but nevertheless affect those surrounding us.

Thanks!
