Well, it is opinion, and creditably, listed as such. This is not news. It comes across as smug, sanctimonious spleen-venting. I do not concern myself with the views expressed by the Author (and indeed - the proprietor of the publishing outlet). That is not for me to judge or opine upon. On the merits, what is presented is an oh-too-common instance of self-referential navel-gazing. There is not much else to say as a critique. It is of course the prerogative of those signing the checks, so to speak, to say and do as they generally please. Perhaps it is best to finish with a quote and leave things as they are. "Idealism is fine, but as it approaches reality, the costs become prohibitive." - William F. Buckley
