Disclaimer and Mission

Beginning this blog's titular inspiration, "Politics as a Vocation," Max Weber noted that his work would “necessarily disappoint you in a number of ways.”

In our maiden post, a similar disclaimer: we will necessarily, and unnecessarily, disappoint you in a number of ways. In fact, if you comment on how you find our posts disappointing, we will use blogger’s tagging function to categorize our posts by mode of disappointment. With our incompetence and your help, this could be our primary organizational tool.

Per the subtitle, our “ruminating” aim is to serve as a protracted but constructive complaint with various public policy status-quos. Per “digressing,” we won’t hazard a guess, but imagine you’ll know it when you see it.
