For those unfamiliar with my point of view, that out of control rapacious business people and professional politicians are not born but raised in households who simply have no value system, it is perhaps important that I explain more of my thinking on this matter never,



I completely disagree with you Gary.  I have worked in politics most of my career and what motivates me is the opportunity to make the world better for my children and their children.  Sitting on the Regional Water Quality Control Board helps to ensure that their water is safe...sitting on the Library Commission I can ensure that their libraries have books and that a main library downtown will not only be a destination but also a place for the arts and a place for learning....sitting on the board of Overseers at UCSD I can try and make sure that our educational institutions are the best in the nation if not the world.  Please do not be so cynical
Gary and think that people in public service are ALL bad.  Everywhere there are the good, bad and ugly.

I prefer to be true to myself, even at the hazard of
incurring the ridicule of others, rather than to be false,
and to incur my own abhorrence.
