What would i do to make this place better? I personally believe that greater and wiser men and women than i are holding the reigns of this thing of ours at the moment. I dont have my own opinion, as i am not required to form one. Should the day come that i am in a position to make those changes then i will both form and share my opinion with you. Until then i am content to follow my leaders path.

A leader is only as strong as his members. If you cannot form your opinion what good are you? Will you blindly follow your crew leader off a cliff if he guides you to one? Will you drink the juice if he promises it will bring you a healthy long life?

Im sure your crew leader is not a tyrant and will not bring punishment down on you if you are respectful. Maybe the problem here is not of a dull world but of a world where fear is a common pronlem. Don do you fear to give an opinion?

I would follow him off a cliff if that was his wish. Not out of fear, but simply out of loyalty and friendship. TheCancerousTumor is probably one of the fairest Crew Leaders that my bloodline has ever worked for. I trust in his leadership, and i trust in Godfather Stamina's leadership. My bloodline is old fashioned, when we join a family we will follow that families leader until death.

A question much like your own is: Does a soldier follow orders or does he give them?

The answer is, that it depends on the rank of the solder. Some will only ever follow orders, others were born to lead. Some will do both.

But the fact of the matter is, i dont fear punishment but trust his leadership.

The problem with what one person takes as an improvement to society another looks at with suspicious eyes or doesnt notice.  One person can see bg'ing up as a reward, another as a step to stagnancy and stability with a third party seeing it as a preparation for war.  The truth is half the battle is what makes a victor happy, doesnt help those who feel wherever their family line goes they are shot down through no fault of their own.  I talked to someone recently who first served in philly, then went to saint louis and finally on to las vegas each time being gunned down as they sleep; can i sympathise with how they feel with what they and their lineage are getting out of society of course. 

I think is same for others who watch the same family lines setting up over and over and looking on with disdain as they feel their hardwork is for nothing.  I think the truth is their are so many problems but depends who you and how you feel it; as i know my family line stopped buying bgs due to the fact they got shot at, stopped paying of ca's as was killed before the ca's were half way through their mission.

The problem is whats a problem for some such as the state of the streets or business district will not matter to others, but thats just me and only way things can change is from city hall first in regard to stealthiness(although is a work in progress last time i heared), whilst other problems may be some want to lead, but lack the skills for it and will find stagnancy in that.

Just a quick comment on this side debate The BS and Dimitri were having... Even a soldier born to lead has to prove he is also capable of following. If not, he's not born to lead, he's just an arrogant prick with a problem with authority, so my hat's off to you on this one, Dimitri.

As for the main debate, nothing new to add, I admit it, but I wanted to share which side I'm on. It's true, we will never be able to keep everyone happy. Although I bet that the people that complain when things are stagnant are not the same batch that complain when things are like today. Which makes sense, some people enjoy a land of opportunity, some people enjoy very old people with thousands of bodyguards, etc etc.
