That's the exact kinda complacency that led to these problems
What a wonderfully crafted sentence. "Complacency" is a word I've never used, yet it has always struck me as such a slick word to work into conversation. I'll have to be more diligent and work it into my vocabulary going forward.
Lest I become complacent.
I didn't say "that's the solution", but a temporary band-aid to ponder about bettering things.
I hate to say it, but a large number of people are ignorant, or even downright simple enough to be completely satisfied with the bandaid and will stop desiring positive change - leading to the exact same events playing out over again
