If we were allowed to Sim City our way to goodness, I'd pretty much agree with you.
But my province, a fair chunk of that land is held and others aspire to it.
I mean, my answer doesn't make any of those people happy, but it's basically just, fuck those people, if there's a correct way to do something, we should do things in said correct way, rather than capitulating to everyone's half-baked propagandized idiot desires
I'm pretty sure this is the reasoning espoused by every autocrat in history, many of whom thought they were doing things for the better.
I mean, yeah, but the major difference is that they were wrong and dumb and I am correct
sounds more dictatorial by the minute
and I'm loving every minute of it jerry
