>The truth is behind you
53 years on and we stiff haven't learned.
PDF too large, won't let me upload.
Here's an excerpt:
It is not unusual that a major problem in public affairs can exist without public awareness of or concern for it, but it is a proven truth that until there is widespread concern of the kind that leads to determined public action by a significant number of the public, there is no chance of any effective attack on the problem.
…
Yet my experience has taught me, and I am sure yours has taught you, that with rare, if any exceptions, the public is not likely to search out or educate itself as to needs of any public agency, or function of government, so long as it operates reasonably well. It must either be driven to take a closer look by a complete breakdown of operation, or it must be led to do so by effective, respectable and knowledgeable leadership.
