Whenever I walk into a business that is in trouble and I present new ideas for how they process or merchandise their product, and the response is "We've always done it that way," I know instantly why the business is in trouble. Sticking with the old ways might be convenient, but good business managers know that their world is constantly changing and they are consistently seeking new and better ways to get things done.
You might call it "thinking out of the box."
Well, it seems to me that the major trouble in Washington is that they have become stodgy, set in their ways and obstinate when it comes to change. Past presidents have thrown up their hands in frustration and dismay while letting the "system" have its way.
But, now comes Trump.
Whenever Trump comes up with a new idea on how to get things accomplished, the instant cry of Democrats and Republicans alike is: "You can't do that! We don't do things that way!" When confronted with a huge agenda and a plethora of new ways to get things accomplished, government officials are digging in their heels and steadfastly resisting.
You and I know that Washington is in a bad state of disrepair. Many say it is broken and I can't disagree with them. We cannot continue to allow things to run the way they are. Either those in the plush offices of Washington must freshen up their approaches to things and get with the program, or they need to be removed.
That's MY AMERICAN OPINION, respectfully submitted.
