But you know this already.

Keep squinting your way around the bigger picture and the potential for actually doing a little good for people here and there.

The perfect is the enemy of the good, and your ideals - while laudable and ones I proudly share - aren't the kind of things you can feed to a hungry infant when the shelter soupline dries up.

It is what it is. We didn't invent this shit; 99% of what's gone wrong stems from decisions made 60, 70, 100 years ago. But we gotta play the cards we were dealt.

Winning works.
