For once I think that it is possible to improve on George. It should be. The 'FIRST AND' last refuge of a man with no answers and no arguments.
I do not think he ever saw his role as that of problem solver. My impression was that he thought his mission was to try to wake up the indoctrinated, POINT OUT the problems, and let them do the problem solving. He was always the boy saying, “the emperor has no clothes”. “What’s wrong with the world” will take a lot more than that to fix.
