You have said you liked your colleagues at Humana and Cigna. Yes, they are not "evil" in the way that we so often imagine evil. Hannah Arendt got it exactly right: evil is mostly coomonplace and banal. The evil that is bringing our nation down is the kind you have described: decent-enough people willing to go along with evil practices, in either industry or government, in return for money and power. With fewer people like you and more people like your former colleagues, we truly are on a path heading downward, down toward a cultural decline that our fanatical Islamo-fascist enemies need only step back and watch unfold. They do not need to destroy the "great Satan." We are doing a good job of destroying ourselves. Only decent and courageous men like you stand in the way of our cultural, moral, social, and political decline. God bless you! Maybe God sends us both good men like you and also makes use of our evil Islamo-fascist enemies, who might also remind Americans of the goodness at the core of the North American experiment in self-government (which cannot survive absent virtuous citizens like you).
