why good people can question "what's the use?" of taking a stance in opposition to those Goliaths. In the case I'm working on, it involves the military industrial complex. Some of the people who assist me -- including doctors and a few government employees -- have to keep their identities secret. The industry carries a big stick. But it's one that I don't feel. (At least not yet!)

It's a tough time, and people get discouraged. But in time, I think they'll come around.
