Your legacy is the way you made people feel. Your words and actions and rhetoric. Itās how youāll be remembered. Itās your lasting impact on others. We should be helpers in this world, not only because itās right and good and just, but because it is the legacy we leave for others.

A big part of the reason for the significant "inefficiency" in government is that the law builds in process and redundancies. It is easy to increase "efficiency" if you are not law-abiding, but the scare quotes are needed because legal compliance is not inefficient if it is part of the goal.

When you accept that politics is a game with real life consequence then there should be no other choice but to vote for harm reduction. This is why Black voters get it right most of the time. The gift of discernment is often overruled by bigotry and thats how you end up with idiots like Trump.
