Yes indeed and there is apparently NO help for whatever disease it is that aflicts him.
Reminds me of another quote:
Ignorance is correctable; stupid is forever! Author unknown
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.?.
