He who works on the highway will have many advisers.
Advisers get away with it. They never have to pay the penalty for their advice.
He that buildeth upon the highway hath many advisers.

The best advisers, helpers and friends, always are not those who tell us how to act in special cases, but who give us, out of themselves, the ardent spirit and desire to act right, and leave us then, even through many blunders, to find out what our own form of right action is

Cheats and fools
You can trace the cause from the effect.
You can’t tell the effect for a cause.
Astrologers and advisers are cheats.
The believers make themselves fools..

My advisers built a wall between myself and my people. I didn't realize what was happening. When I woke up, I had lost my people.

Fortunately, President Kennedy and Robert Kennedy disagreed with the estimate and chose a course of action less ambitious and aggressive than recommended by their advisers.
Most tax revisions didn't improve the system, they made it more like Washington itself complicated, unfair, cluttered with gobbledygook and loopholes designed for those with the power and influence to hire high-priced legal and tax advisers.

All That Has Been Done
Let's take this 'out'.
And soar around the Universe.
In flights of endless ecstacy.
Let's take this 'out'...
To expose what it is.
Love as it is...
Hardly seen,
Shared between two...
And,
Not followed by an army of advisers.
Let's take this 'out'.
To have love redefined.
Although,
Any definition of love,
Would be fine these days.
But we can take it 'out'.
Knowing all that has been done...
Is connected.
And should not affect us.

Interview Conceptual
INTERVIEW CONCEPTUAL
One of his most senior advisers took me to one side and said: 'If there is a question I do not like, I will tell the president not to answer it.'
'I'm sorry, ' I said, 'that's not the way we do interviews at the BBC.'
The aide grimaced but reluctantly agreed not to intervene.
Stephen Sackur
Presenter, BBC HARDtalk
the interview is conceptual map you'd better draw in a psychological awareness and with a think-good aesthetics.

Doing Nothing and Getting Paid
There they are!
Standing where they were...
Where they are right now.
Doing what they did then...
In a perfected stale and staticness.
Like crows on a fence,
Waiting for the scarecrow...
To be updated with a new defense.
And even if that does happen...
They will still complain,
About how things remain the same.
And no one wants to do a thing to change!
Even though they move as group advisers...
From block to block!
Telling those who pass by,
How things 'use' to be in the day...
When they were 'back home' with good jobs,
Doing nothing and getting paid!
And today too many want too much,
For more than it's worth!
And not willing to pay the price,
For the advice they have to offer!

What can They Do?
What the police can do
if minors and those under fifteen
who are yet to get
the driving license
unleash a passion
for stealing bikes?
What the people can do
but to sign the insurance policies
if the agent advisers unleash
an emotional attack
by quoting the uncertain, sudden
oncoming fatal accidents?
when we race by bike or car
the agents words burst in mind
and we see danger waving its hands
lying in wait in the middle of the road.

No Chance for Peace
No chance for peace – Their declared stance!
Surprised I am not for they operate from a position of dominance
Their strong arm tactics elevated higher
By an ever increasing grouping of obedient tax-payers.
The populace, their wealth they pour
Into the furnace of an all consuming fire
Mesmerized by the flickering flame
Detached unless the implication strike home.
Not all are consumed by this flicker from Hades
The funeral pyre or the ashes made
Belief is held from those who scatter
Hope to wind, denying fuel for their fire.
