I don't believe in uptopias, or an idealistic world. In fact I had to function in the real world for 20 years. I wrote a zillion letters for the commissioner and governors signature. And they were pure politic.
When I was writing and implementing the states alcoholism and drug abuse program and the state's emergency medical services programs, I set both of them up to evolve. For example, I created districts and advisory councils in those districts where the people could figure out solutions at the local level.
I was very pragmatic as a program administrator. I am just looking at the dynamics. We may differ on our thinking about that.
For example, I'm not so sure Russia is safer with a madman like Trump and Flynn constantly intereacting with them, then it is with a sober person like Obama or Clinton. I don't trust insanity, it is insanity, which means it is not rational, is not real and it is not predictable.
What if Russian and Trump get into a tiff and that is more likely if they have constant interaction with each other than if we sort of have a cold war between the two countries, both sides respect.
And what do we do if Russia attacks Lithuania? Which looks likely.
And what happens if Russia and NATO get into a confrontation? Trump seems to want to pull us away from NATO and cozy up to Russia. That is a terrible idea. So many questions :)>?
I was not that big of an Obama fan, because I didn't think he took on the Republicans as much as he should have, or supported the Democrati party, or packed the courts very well, but I did like his intellect, sanity and stability.
koan, you always seem to want a totally idealistic world, |
