There is a curious silver lining which comes with all these problems we are experiencing - they bring out people who think - and who write well. This makes it more palatable to deal with opinions with which one doesn't agree - like now, when I do not agree with you. Nobody will follow us -- we do not lead anybody. Being in a hurry to please those who might be lost themselves is no great leadership either. Perhaps, it is wiser to worry not about leading, but rather about following - following our principles. If we continue doing that, others will come back to us - those, who like our principles. People who despise individual rights - those we do not wish to lead. We wish to lead against them.
