Well I hope you feel good about yourself now that you’ve established that you are above it all.
But tell me, when has anything been accomplished on a grand scale when those most responsible were not at least somewhat motivated by personal gain or fame or both? NEVER I suppose.
You know, its a little bit flimsy to claim to be a conservative economically and then worry about what is in it for folks who attempt certain things. Smacks of hypocrsiy.
But you shouldn’t mind. After all, we now know you are altruistic in motivation.
Maybe you want to read up on the founders of our Country. Many risked, and lost, a great deal personally. Washington himself was a reluctant candidate for president, gained nothing personally from it, and then went home to continue his life as a citizen, not a celebrity.
