“I think it is safer to assume somebody in government WILL try any amoral or immoral technique available if it will help his career;and therefore we must guard against such people.”
It’s hard to guard against what we can’t know about, in the name of National Security, until 50+ years after it’s already happened, IF we are lucky. Intelligence agencies have no real oversight, since they will never disclose every operation to Congressional or even Presidential scrutiny. Even if we could force them to reveal everything in their budgets to elected officials, they have long since developed shadow budgets funded by their proprietary companies and illegal activities. They can keep the really dirty stuff off the official books completely, and we’ll probably never find out about it.
Absolutely indeed.
Where do folks think Dilldo Klintoon got his . . . uhhh . . . exercised nose . . . materials.
Of course,the U.S. has strayed very far from the ideals of the founders.
The bloated budgets provide more than ample room for rampant evil.
