    i get the metaphor and trust is earned, but i fundamentally believe this:
    People can change.
    why try to better ourselves, be better people, if change is impossible. improvement is only out of reach for the crabs (having already reached the pinnacle)

      I agree with this.

      It’s a matter of resources. Do people who can both fight the fire and educate people in fighting fires do fire fighting or educating? Hell… I’m not sure we have many of either.
