"Real" Reality vs. "Expert" Reality

Witness how things go askew. If one is so-eaten up as to believe that that the new president-elect is not an important person who deserves a certain ratio of latitude to implement what they are duly-elected to do (right or wrong), do not worry. The victors have a way of neutering themselves.

It is always the daggers from your own-side that hamstring you the most. Witness attempts to do everything (something ...... ANYTHING!) which of course will end in nothing (right or wrong) writ venti large:

Mr. Obama repeated on Saturday that his first priority would be an economic recovery program to get the nation’s business system back on track and people back to work. But advisers said the question was whether they could tackle health care, climate change and energy independence at once or needed to stagger these initiatives over time.
Attempts to be all things to all people = 0.

If your attempt is to woo all left-handed persons not married over the age of forty who have a pre-condition which does not allow them to have right-handed twins yet they compost pile and do not utilise the stand-by function on any electronic computer component as well as adhere to the stricture of not buying food products not produced within a home radius of 2.67 kilometers while at the same time eschewing all manufatured clothing in lieu of hemp-based under-garments, you will precis make a "difference" in the life of a left-handed person not married and over the age of forty who has a pre-condition which does not allow them to have right-handed twins yet have a compost pile and do not utilise the stand-by function on any electronic computer component as well as adhere to the stricture of not buying food products not produced within a home radius of 2.67 kilometers while at the same time eschewing all manufatured clothing in lieu of hemp-based under-garments.

Does the urgency of "doing something" (that in reality is governmentalist nothingness) matter that much?

The answer to a governmentalist is, YES!™ ................... of course.
