When asked about his political views, President John F. Kennedy eloquently responded:

"I am an idealist without illusions"

When it comes to impacting positive change on society, it matters not whether one considers themselves liberal or conservative, democrat or republican, independent or progressive. What matters is having the vision of change and the firm grasp on reality to make it happen.

There are many blogs operating under this very philosophy of idealism without illusions. This blog however, was beget out of a need to form the collection of thoughts regarding current events as they relate to the trajectory of changes being made to impact the future. The topics of concern are thus:
  • International Human Rights
  • Religion & Government
  • American Economics
  • US Foreign Affairs
  • Health Care
  • Education
  • Agriculture
  • Energy
  • Civil Rights
While political leaning of this blog can be assumed from the header, altruism and egalitarianism are the ethical lenses by which events will be discussed. Consequentialism and utilitarianism will likely (although not entirely) not apply.
