Why Don't We Complain? William F. Buckley Jr.

This reading was very interesting and I liked it a lot.  Why don't people voice there opinion about things that bother them?  I think it's really do to the way people are raised and it's people being polite.  There are right times to voice someones opinion and then other times when it isn't okay.  For instance we don't voice our opinion if someone is where something or doing something we don't like.  Generally we just smile, but we are really thinking, "What the heck is that person wearing?"  This I feel is similar to Ken Robinson's idea that he brought up about people not taking risks.  If someone makes a remark that is a negative they are sometimes stigmatized by someone else and then don't want to voice they're opinion again.  Overall I think the guy wanted to tell the reader to take more risks and voice their opinion about anything.
