Today's 'wacko' is tomorrow's normal

The other day I was thinking about this "carbon footprint analyst" ordeal during this years Democratic National Convention. Is this something that has been created to provide new jobs on future government payrolls?

If you think about the possible aspects then it has possibility to lead to possible real changes in the way we act in our lives each day. If you think about all the changes of the past and see where we stand today then you get my meaning. A tether use to be used to keep gestating sows from romping around a hog barn. Then someone decided they could use a tether to tow things with, and the safety industry adopted tethers to keep workers from sliding off roofs. So, today's wacko is tomorrow's normal!

Can you imagine what our country would look like if we resisted all change? If we would not have adapted to new products and methods, we'd possibly be out of business. When there is no business there is no jobs, and without jobs we can't keep this capitalist machine grinding. Because of adaptability we are able to progress forward. While we progress forward we must be sure not to penalize those who invent and create jobs. Some are cut out for inventing and others are cut out for producing by serving as workers.

An old wise man once said: "Be not first when the new is tried, but be not last to cast the old aside." Progress leads to change - good or bad is better than stagnant!

Has the PISD really changed? Has Camp County government really changed? Has Pittsburg city government really changed? Changing personnel can sometime lead to change, but often it takes personnel with new ideas and one not afraid to challenge the establishment in order to bring real progress.

Today's wacko is tomorrow's normal!
