Well the guy ain't stupid.. but he could care less about the country as a whole.. I think Utopian dreams waylay a lot of good ideas.. The good idea I speak of is shit canning the barrel of spoiled apples and starting a new barrel.. Its that way with apples.. once the "germ" infects them.. vinegar is not far off.. or at the least cider.. The apple juice is a distant recollection..
(if you get my metaphor)..
Just being practical, I think.. What say Ye.?.
I get your metaphor but I'm not yet quite ready to throw out the whole barrel as I think there are a good many apples that can be saved still in there. If we don't get the baduns out REAL SOON though there won't be any option left but to empty the barrel and start over. Hopefully, I'll still be around to help ya with the job when the time comes.
