I think there are too many smart people, with too many good ideas to stand by and remain complacent when political changes threaten the lifeline of USG cash. I only pray that the ones who prevail think like David. I guess it's time for those of us who have made tidy livings in the business of development to face the challenge to our own integrity. How many of us have bitterly, but quietly, criticized the system from within, while being too busy writing the next proposal for funding and too afraid lest we break the spigot from which the money flows, to consider an alternative reality with no room for error, and no safety net of 'the way things get done'?
