a twenty-five-year-old
recently asked me if i
“believed in regulation”
i don’t remember my exact response but…
it’s way too simple
when regulation is driven by profit
the cost/benefit balance
is measured
in terms of profit
or lack-there-of
when regulation is driven by public well-being
the cost/benefit balance
is measured
in terms of public well-being
or lack-there-of
obviously
i tried to temper my tone
to avoid the common
old curmudgeonly response
later in the conversation
the twenty-five-year-old
gave critique
regarding the questionable awareness
of yet younger
“adults”
ah…
life is good
Peace/Love/Educate/Activate
