I'm building a better world just like Ron did
Am I making my hometown safer from fire?

I create as many fire hazards as possible, poorly maintained refineries, stacks of oily newspapers in nearly every basement, intermittent water service through vandalism, piles of unattended drying brush in every lot, and a I have started a working "matches for children" giveaway program.

My town, in response has had to beef up its fire department to the point of ridiculousness, we have twice as many firemen and fire engines as similar cities do.

So, I have made the city safer from fire.

Isn’t that how Reagan won the cold war?
