10. Nope I don't want to revise

I believe that the policies the repubs would pursue would end up being harmful to the economy. They believe differently. They believe the policies I would have the government pursue would be harmful to the economy. There is no objective arbiter to decide these things. Same thing back during the Vietnam War: I believed the war was immoral, unnecessary and not in the nation's interests. Millions believed, until they were persuaded otherwise, that I was wrong and that my opposition to the war was harmful to the nation's security and future.

Again: one is not a traitor for not going along with your political opposition's policies.
