A favorite joke is that - an accountant is someone who doesn't have the charisma of an economist.

Very evocative essay Sally. I feel that my essay calling for Accountants to

Quote from Attachment.
What we need to search for and find, what we need to hone and perfect into a
magnificent, shining thing, is a new kind of politics. Not the politics of
governance, but the politics of resistance. The politics of opposition. The
politics of forcing accountability. The politics of slowing things down.
As long as all the arguments are at the front - should we do this - should
we do that - without the accountability of assessment of achievement of
stated goals at the end - how can we every refine our choices to better
outcomes.
Respectfully,
Thomas Lunde
