And so in a way, some of the changes gave me an opportunity to have a voice in a different way. ↗

You know, in a business, you have to operate on the basis of voluntary investment by individuals in a cause. With government, there is no voluntary effort to invest capital. It's just taken and invested. And the same accountability is not at play. The same natural forces in the economy are not at play. ↗
