Have you ever noticed whenever a person lies to another and are asked “why”, the answer to the “why” is always a lie? We have sunk to the lowest depths when a person cannot tell another the truth, if they know it. We expect this from politicians and corporations, and other business entities but not necessarily from another human being. The recent events in a major city in central Illinois has pointed out the futility of lying to the question of “Why”. This city is besieged by arrogant politicians , administrators of for profit , and non profit organizations that have come to depend on lying about why instead of  doing the work they are hired, elected or selected to do. If it were actually possible for someone to spin in their graves then the founding fathers, the peacemakers and great thinkers would have many burial sites churned up. The legacies of this Nation’s founders and progressives are being stained by the personal ambitions of people who have only their own well being in mind while mouthing the platitudes of  public good. There is no progress made when leaders put themselves above the good of the public. The public is the base of this pyramid and if it collapses then the structure will fail! A good foundation will support a bad structure for just so long before the structure fails and has to be rebuilt. This is where we are right now in Springfield,IL.
