Organizations ALWAYS circle the wagons around the survival of the organization. They will ALWAYS engage in cover-ups of malfeasance so that the organization may survive.
I know, I’m Catholic. My Church has been demonstrating this for a couple of millennia.
“Organizations ALWAYS circle the wagons around the survival of the organization.”
And government entities do it in spades, because when you strip away the veneer of pseudo respectability, nearly all government entities are, primarily “vote buying jobs programs!” We have thousands of “boards and commissions” that are do nothings which give money to people for no show “jobs” in exchange for their fealty to the RAT Party.
I still believe that a good four week government shut down would be an “illuminating event!” We would be able to see just who is really worth keeping, and the government would keep the wage savings from the event, instead of giving it back to “the workers.” At 2% per week, that would be a savings on salaries alone of 8%!
