The amazing thing is that the errors happen so often that they are just glossed over, and we have come to accept them. Incompetence rules the day, it seems.
Lately, in almost all walks of life.
One of the great things about America was competence. Immigrants to this country saw that for themselves in contrast to the countries they came from.
Things worked here in the USA. You could drive the highways. You could drink the water safely anywhere. When you flipped a switch, lights came on. Ferries rarely sank or capsized killing large numbers of people, etc.
Seems like everything is breaking down now.
