Do you honestly believe that's a more productive strategy than working in the system to make what changes you can? (Which, I imagine, aren't insignificant.)

It's awfully easy to sit and judge from the sidelines (trust me, I do it a lot), but it's a different thing when you have all the information and when its your livelihood in question.

Unfortunately we don't have all the information, but I can't help but believe I'd like to have been a fly on the wall during some of Quim's hallway chats. Frankly, I'd rather know someone is doing what they can where they are than see them go out in a blaze of glory. Telling people off is rarely an effective strategy to win them over to your point of view.
