Very good! Chances are that big organizations will not make any changes, even though they have huge potential for something great. What is something we can do? Think out of the box, how can we put more people on the path to progress? Even though doom sells, people are still inherently looking for hope.

Sure, I guess. I'm not big on breaking rules usually, however.
