I always enjoy this lib argument. Bush was called arrogant, but our libs think they are smarter than every other liberal that implemented government healthcare.

The problem is: no matter where you start or how “smart” you are going in, the decision parameters and ultimate decisions are the same the world over. You cannot avoid achieving the same level of “care” as everyone else.

I took over an organzation, once, that was heading in the wrong direction by about 180 degrees (a technical group that promoted on “teamwork” not on technical skill— kind of like socialism). When I analyzed how they had arrived there over a 10 year period, I found it was a series of rather small decisions- each one moved them a degree or two further away from the path they should have been on. They didn’t even see how it happened, because each individual decision was made “for the right reasons.” Although it was stressfull and took 2 years, we got the group headed the right direction again, and it became the recognized technical leader it should have always been....

Thanks for that anecdote. Very interesting. Did they spend ten years breaking up into ‘study groups’?

It seems to be the fashionable thing to do.

Miomoto Musashi pointed out that a very small deviation from the true path in the beginning becomes a huge deviation as the journey continues.
