Most people, when they find something they don’t like, do that. They call it names. They complain. They make it bigger than it is, make it representative of some larger trend. They think someone should do something, but never them. Not me. It’s a classic collective action problem: we know things are bad, but they only affect each of us a little bit. So who is going to take care of it for us? Plenty of people believe in the theory of so-called great men of history, but who believes I am that great man? There is ego in that, silliness even.
