Perfect Politicians and Perfect People...Not Possible!
Are our elected officials perfect? No. Is anyone perfect? No. I am not looking for perfect but for people with character and integrity. Most people today are in a sad state of corruptibility. They have no values to stand by or stand up for. They are easily swayed from what they say they believe in.
As a Realtor, I am supposed to abide by our Code Of Ethics. When I read the Code, it sounds like common sense to me because I like to consider myself a man of integrity and character. I hear many stories from other agents or unhappy clients of other agents about things that happen. It is sad!
You are either honest or you are not. Plain and simple! You can't be honest when it is only in your best interest. That is not how it works.
Here is a quote I like form someone who may not have been perfect but I think had some integrity.
I hope I shall possess firmness and virtue enough to maintain what I
consider the most enviable of all titles, the character of an honest
man.
George Washington
I wish we could have some more like him in office today!
