Majority Rules

By and large, it seems to me that there are more good individuals in the world than good groups of people. Whenever people come together in a formal way into clubs and committees into organizations and companies into corporations and governments there's a shift in the moral landscape people become profiles lives become lists tragedies become talking points and a bureaucrat is born. Thoreau saw this. He stared bureaucracy straight in the eye and said I have no need to join I already am a majority of one.
