I don't make political work. I don't make work that criticises the state. I make as human work as I can.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I wouldn't characterize my work, however, as directly political.
My work is not directly about the social or political.
But I don't need to use politics as a way of making money.
Political work is the life-blood of all economic work.
I took a political stance early on, but I don't think my work is overtly political. I respond to events.
I don't have a vested interest in a particular political career or a particular political office. My job is to do everything that I can to create an America and a world that we can live in and that we can survive in.
I treat politics kind of like my religion. It's something I believe in, but I don't want to have to make a living at it, because if you make a living at it, you somehow become dishonest.
I am not political as a person.
If I weren't doing the politics, I wouldn't be doing my job.
I do what I do, and write what I write, without calculating what is worth what and so on. Fortunately, I am not a banker or an accountant. I feel that there is a time when a political statement needs to be made and I make it.
