Even if success is not always about merit (like a certain occupant of the WH), merit is still the primary goal. The state has no right whatsoever to undermine this core American principle by force of arms. It’s extremely destabilizing, it causes great damage to millions of innocent citizens, and it undermines our economic prosperity ( or, given we lost that four or five years ago, it impedes our another to recover if so many jobs are forced to be occupied by less than capable or meretricious people ).
