When
I was a kid, my favorite radio hero was The Lone Ranger. Astride
his horse Silver, he rode across the West fighting crime and corruption. Here's how it worked, in case you've forgotten. The Lone Ranger somehow learns of a small town suffering in the evil grip of a crook who is stealing mining claims, damming up the creek and charging exorbitant prices for water, or illegally acquiring land needed for the railroad. Meanwhile,
the crook controls the people, through terror, by hiring gunslingers to
ride up and down the main street on Saturday night shooting their guns and
generally acting out their anger and juvenile fantasies. The
Lone Ranger rides into this mess, and without requesting assistance, or
even mileage, solves all the problems by shooting the bad guys in the
hand. He requires no citizen
support or participation. The
townspeople crouch in fear in their homes occasionally peeking out the
window to observe the miracle. Then
without pausing for thanks he rides off into the sunset leaving a silver
bullet as a keepsake of his visit. He
was better than a Federal Grant. He solved all the problems. People
were not required to do a thing, not even sign a Privacy Act Declaration. You
don't have to belong or join anything. Americans
still believe in the Lone Ranger, expecting easy answers that don't
require any involvement on their part. We
prefer to have some outsider ride in, solve the problems while we watch
from in front of our televisions or on the internet. Beware!
