I've discovered a new method to improve the well-being of all humans on this planet in a very significant way. Should I go public?
Well, I'm not any egoistic or mean character, on the contrary, but I'm somewhat pessimistic as to the human race. I see people for what they are. Politicians are corrupt and they all came initially from the people so most people are really like the politicians they criticise all the time. Most would be worse if put in charge. It's clear to me people are mostly bad and often very bad. History unfortunately provides more evidence that I could suffer to review. My heart bleeds for the countless victims and yet I know they would have committed similar crimes given the right circumstances. It's really all very sad. So, why go public with my discovery only to help bad people have a better life? Doesn't make sense to me.
Any advice?
