Were there mass resignations in the Soviet Union?

No, because people saw the corruption all around them and endemic in the system, and decided to simply go with the flow, as it would better to be inside the system, and have career and a means to protect your family - than be outside the system, and have nothing at all.

Good point! It will be up to President Trump to show there’s a better way. Military base closures put people out of work but base closing commissions ‘lightened’ the blow making it acceptable as well as inevitable. Truwill use a blunt knife and put a lot of gop supporters out of work as well. That’s why my earlier posts suggesting the capitol be moved would help. The builder in him can make it futuristic as well as small.

Economics wins out over integrity, every time it seems.

Thus, a haiku:

They protect pensions
Fighting evil “Not meh jehb!”
Careerist dooshbags
