Philosophy
I have a random selection of blogs bookmarked. One of these is Bill Lovett's. I forget why I have his bookmarked, but I did come across a quote worth keeping track of though:
Collectively, a group of people is able to navigate a busy sidewalk because each person is looking out for his or herself, and miraculously that allows everyone to get to where they're going in a more-or-less efficient fashion [What if iPods could broadcast?].
That only proves once more that self-interest is the best way to go. If only certain people would accept that and hammer it into their skulls we might see better governance.
