I'm gonna reference what you said again: > The US needs a renaissance of the importance and virtue of public service. "importance and virtue of public service". Unless you consider there is such a thing as public service without government, and that your "virtue" here, used along "renaissance" and "importance" doesn't suggest it needs to be more virtuous, I'd argue it's you who needs to be better at explanation. Now, on a more important note, if your vision of the private sector is reduced to people working on online ads, I suggest you look beyond the software industry and consider smart people working in very important industries, in research, energy, medicine, finance, millions of people making our lives possible in ways than no public servant will ever be able to even just dream about. So if anything imo, we don't need more public servants, aren't there enough people telling us how to live our lives? If renaissance we need, is on the importance and virtue of a good day's work as a way to better ourselves and society.
