It has occurred to me that when I see people who have the leadership positions in our society take no stance on helping our society improve when the need is greatest, it must be that they are somehow immured to ignoring the problem through a deactivation process. Some will just say something illogical to defend their inaction, while others will just dismiss action as necessary. it occurs to me that when our citizens are truly in need of leadership and the leadership isn't there, then the leaders must not care to help. How can one who has run and been elected to a leadership position not care? At first I chalked much of it up as a rational problem with a rational solution, you know, they just needed to be informed. But as time has gone on and the logic of the problem and a good solution has been produced the continued inaction leaves me with only one other reasonable conclusion, the leaders don't care about the necessary needs of their fellow citizens. I am not putting all our leaders in the same category, some of our leaders are tireless and sentinel in their convictions to help our citizens wherever and whenever possible, but there are enough of others that don't care by my reckoning. These are the ones who I am thinking find it more useful to numb themselves from being human and actually caring for their countrymen so that they may keep what they have or not have regressive forces come against them. It takes courage to be a leader, that is implicit in the job description, however we have lost that fine quality with so many who choose to not display courage when their courage is most needed.
