Dolly is here to advise the Cinniapolis community and answer any questions with grace and honesty. Here is today’s question:

Q: Dear Dolly, I am a government insider. I know the secrets of our tyrannical leaders. I have insight into their psychotic methods and evil behavior. But, I fear revealing their secrets will put a target on my back. I don’t want to be in this position. But, it is my duty to the Cinniapolitans. I fear if I reveal these sinister plans for Cinniapolis, my goose will be cooked, so to speak. I knew of the meat ban, I knew of the planned power outages. I know this is just the tip of the iceberg. Should residents acquiesce without much fuss, banning meat and rationing electricity will be child’s play compared to other plans already in motion. Dolly, how do I share my gift of secret knowledge with the public without reprisal from my bosses?

Sincerely, Fly on the Wall

A: Dear Fly on the Wall, you are brave to share your position of access within Mayor Gondola’s administration. You are not brave to hide behind a moniker and claim to know worse is on the way and do nothing about it. My advice would be to access your courage, remember your service is to Cinniapolis and not any one person or group that masquerades as the de facto boss of Cinniapolitans. Represent Cinniapolitans with integrity and stand up for their rights before there are no rights left to champion. Your duty is to the residents that voted you into your position. Perhaps, instead of writing a local advice columnist, your next letter should be to your government colleagues with solutions on improving life here in Cinniapolis. So, Fly on the Wall, if worse is on the way, please buzz buzz buzz as best you can to ensure the worst never becomes policy because I sure do miss meat.

Sincerely, Dolly
