Conditions in Bell?

 People not paying attention - a distracted,
disengaged citizenry and media

 Systems of accountability and oversight missing
 Policies, other written rules non-existent or

subordinate to arbitrary power
 Isolationist mentality – from others, from ideas
 Few advocacy groups, non-profits, service clubs
 “Loyalty” to the wrong things/people

Avoiding the slippery slope 54

 Transparency, accountability, oversight are
institutionalized and embraced

 Wise policies guide decisions and actions
 Active advocacy groups, non-profits, clubs
 People paying attention – demanding a

say!
 Engaged with others – other agencies,

training, conferences
