Issues: Policy & Power
We have to face it. Governmental policy is often determined not by the general population, but by the influential, the powerful, the wealthy.
It is folly to expect national and state government policy to make the best decisions for all of us.
The people in the government first serve the powerful people in any society and do not truly feel an obligation to provide good management. "Future generations are unlikely to condone our lack of prudent concern for the integrity of the natural world that supports all life." Silent Spring, Rachel Carson, 1962.
