Pessimistic thought of the day.

Arguing government with a friend:

"We're never going to agree on any of this. The government makes mistakes, but so do I. You can't expect perfection because it's not going to happen. If you expect perfection from a government then you're living in the wrong reality. All you have (Name) is idealistic philosophy which isn't congruent with a society that's rough. People aren't innately good or bad, they are simply people. And they behave according to themselves and what they think is right. Those opinions will never match up. And to expect these opinions on what is right to align perfectly is to expect every star in the universe to suddenly align themselves in a single file line and do a dance." - Me
