Without a unified political climate of opinion, there is little or no political profit in doing the right thing.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Politics isn't just about doing the right thing. It's also about winning.
Sometimes what's right isn't as important as what's profitable.
People should only profit to the extent they make other peoples lives better.
Sometimes people with strong ideology, whether left-wing or right-wing, refuse to do something simply because they believe it is wrong, when doing it actually benefits them. For some people, it's not just about money and political power.
Politics would be a helluva good business if it weren't for the goddamned people.
Nothing would be more profitable to us than a right history of mankind.
Anything that isn't opposed by about 40 percent of humanity is either an evil business or so unimportant that it simply doesn't matter.
Any political agenda and organization which doesn't begin with personal responsibility is just half the argument. It's just not going to succeed.
Nothing profits more than self-esteem, grounded on what is just and right.
That which is unjust can really profit no one; that which is just can really harm no one.
