Edwin,

Just ensure your half full glass is still there when you wake up.

Yes, most of the projects you cited were successful but behind each one were a lot more that were failures. Daily, the government has lots of ideas that come up and some are considered for funding and some lay dormant.

History ‘s lessons remind us of dreams that if funded early would have saved lives like the air balloons presented to Big Abe during the early days of the civil war.

So how do we choose the ones that have a probability of success? Find an incorruptible & independent agency that would weigh your ideas. Have a Sunday Punch that gives everyone a forum to weigh in.

Remember the “Master Planners” profit motive, world class or not. Where are the US-based world class planners that built the Clark convention center NOW? The public is holding the debt and the people have to pay because of the grand vision and honor of whom?

I am sure you could not brag to your neighbors of the debt incurred. Yes no company or entity would organize now a days without a vision.

Check out the world class company visions of Enron and recently American Mortgage. Listen to the employees that woke up looking for their half full glass.
