Most of the time in life problems do not just go away. They will continue to return until they are resolved. Unless you take the time to figure out why strategy x did not resolve the problem, you are doomed to be visited with the problem over and over. This inability to admit the existence of a real problem seems to be a hallmark of our leadership.
Our leaders are afraid of the truth, afraid of facing reality. Sometimes you can get away with living in a fantasy world. Most times you can't. When will we realize we are living in a world that is changing very dramatically? How many of the people aspiring to lead this nation are even aware of the changes that are taking place?
