Notes"To be great, be whole;

Because it blooms up above."Fernando Pessoa, Poems of Fernando Pessoa (via divine-despair)

If, as you say,"we’ve paid taxes that have allowed us to build an infrastructure and make investments in innovation that allow for increased economic productivity and efficiency," is it not true that in a roundabout way, we did build it? I mean, if it is our money providing the services required for success.
This is a very good and important point, and one that I didn’t understand when I initially posted this. I was responding to the idea of “the...
