Exactly, you can't argue that we're on the cusp of greatness, then stoke fear people run for the exits the moment we're on the cusp of greatness.  That is simply illogical.  If people leave, it was all a ruse anyways, so that part of the equation is irrelevant if you truly believe great things are in the works.  

Its patently absurd to say we should vote yes for fear of losing people, while simultaneously pumping our future. Which is it?
