Ideas, now that would be "change".  Not noise, not charm, not

I think we have a bit of a semantic problem here, but not a serious
one.

I am all for ideas; I have devoted my life to them.

Here are two radical "new" ideas that have been MIA for decades: (1)
honesty; (2) enlightened self-interest.

These two ideas, if sincerely and persistently pursued, could change
this country and the world. Oops, I used the "C"-word again. Sorry,
but I came of age in the 60s and for me the "times are a-changin"
still.
