I am a business owner in a small community in the Colorado mountains. I have been an Anon from the first post on 1/2 chan. I always felt like I was targeted that day. I am an original Goat if that makes any sense.
Here is my dilemma...
The people of my county have apparently decided they want me to be a County Commissioner. I'm rough around the edges and prefer solitude. I also have the complication of being the guy that found the Fenn treasure. That will bring unwanted public exposure. I am shy and have no need for money. I would rather spend my time fishing and wandering around the desert than get into politics.
My dilemma is that I feel like If I am needed to help my community I am duty bound. These people might even vote me in weather I want the job or not.
I know it's a strange post... What should I do? I don't even want a job but I will do the job.
OK, after reading the OP...
Government should be OF the people, BY the people, and FOR the people.
If you go in, you will be SERVING the public as it was intended... it's a chore that GOOD governance requires... if GOOD people don't SERVE, bad people will take those spots and use it to FUCK the people.
We NEED people who DON'T WANT to be there but will do the RIGHT thing no matter the cost.
It will be a sacrifice, are you willing to make it.
I'm kinda like you... very much a behind the scenes kinda guy.
