That's why you aren't PLONKed; there's a glimmer ... just a faint glow ... of intelligent life in there
I might grant an exception in the case of the military, maybe. I think corruption is less likely in that arm of government service than in the private sector, and am quite certain that their spirit and dedication would not be the same if they were working for Guns'R'Us rather than the United States of America. OTOH, I am certain we'd win more wars if the Congress and administrations weren't running them so directly. "Here's 4% of our GNP, Guns'R'Us. Keep us safe, within this general set of objectives and guidelines. We'll have 1,000 veterans monitoring you, and your contract will be up for competition every couple of years, just like our national research labs are now. Hoo-Raa!" |

Does not understand the role of civilian leadership - check.
Thank God that we have You People (tm) redefine the constitution for the rest of us. _________________ florian - ny22

This is rich, I mean really. ISO is proud of himself for NOT plonking Coboardhead, a mellow MTB'er from Colorado, who never mixes it up or creates any animosity. Funny shit. |
