I agree. I would have been moved from that large cesspool of corruption. They all work together to ruin someone not in lockstep. It is noble to stand and fight. I have great respect for Jack, but I’d think at some point, you just want to run your business and be left alone.

As I have said before on this topic, maybe Jack is the type who embraces a challenge and is not at all overwhelmed living and working in a town full of imbeciles. I have met such people who may seem to be laconic and low key, but inside they are stubborn and very strong willed. Rebellious in their own way.
Clint Eastwood types.

Indeed. I don't know the man, don't know what he's like, but he may see his situation as a duty that must be attended to and not abdicated. He may believe that if he doesn't do it, no one else will, for justice to prevail.
