I find that attitude a little bit patronising, although I'm not taking it personally, as you don't know what I may or may not do.
Everyone has the right to voice their opinion, and pass critical judgement, or indeed give praise, whether they 'take any ownership of themselves' or not.
Whether a person sits on their arse all day, does invaluable work, quietly with true altruism, or does a lot of high profile, back slapping, community work, I think each is still able to give valid, constructive comment.
Going back on track to Peter Britcliffe's thought. It is quite a naive mind that believes that big business will relocate to any particular area, just because it's citizens are thinking positively about the good things the area has. In fact it's simple minded rubbish.
