Making the world a better place.

I’m willing to accommodate accommodating people. Yes, to resort to compromise. For the sake of getting along. Let’s resolve our differences. In  satisfactory manners. In which both sides benefit. As a result of give and take. Of course, it would be nice to have my own way. All of the time. In the role of supreme ruler. Unfortunately, that’s what many American politicians want. To become dictators. To call the shots.  And to hell with the rest of us. On the personal level, I compromise daily. In order to be fair and decent  Not only to friends and acquaintances. But to total strangers. That’s my way of making the world a better place. .—Jim Broede
