My observation here it that this describes the type of stuff we ignored on the way to focusing on what was needed to be achieved to be successful.
Now another way has developed to be successful. In this scenario people manipulate the actions of others by being offended, slighted, discourage, and thereby obtain control over their behavior. Now people never need aspire beyond an entry level government union job.
Exactly right, Retain Mike. We need to quit ignoring stuff.
