Backing

Do you have backing? It's one of the most crucial questions in life. Anyone can be a maverick, anyone can shout their lone opinion against the overwhelming resistance or worse, apathy, of the world. Every street corner doomsayer does that. But to have backing, that is to have convinced at least one person that your not crazy. That your shouting reason and not madness. It is of course no guarantee that this is the case. While there are no street corner doomsayers with backing, there are plenty of cult leaders.
