sometimes, I can relate to the local government. They make mistake, after mistake, and years later, they figure it all out.
I'm currently in the figuring it out stage, but man, I guess it's hard to think of them as just people, rather than this ideal organized group that's super efficient and well formed. It's all just people at the end of the day. Sure, I'm just joe shmoe, but have we ever proven that people of authority are immune to error?
Unionists versus the confederates all over again, history definitely repeats itself
