“If he is basically fronting money to rent a plane from himself, and then if he does not forgive the loans but reimburses himself, he’ll essentially be using donor funds to pay himself,” said Jordan Libowitz, vice president in communications for the nonprofit watchdog Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington.
Awesome.

Having a 6-lane highway that goes through a pedestrian zone is a good sign that things have gone off the rails and the design of the space is broken. Making people trudge up stairs and cross a huge road is indeed better than mowing them down with pickups, but feels like a hack. 😅
Also the speed limit there might be 45 miles per hour. Crossing 6 lanes of traffic without a light may be impossible even if there is no traffic when you start!
Why did you make a comment with the last word of the previous comment? 🤔

The Peter Principle says that people keep getting promoted as long as they are doing a good job. Once they stop being good, they are stuc, and remain doing a job… poorly. So hierarchical organizations always end up with leadership being mostly shit.
Having a cap which says that enlisted men can never get promoted beyond a certain point means that good enlisted troops are “stuck”, and therefore remain at a job they are good at.
The separation between officers and enlisted is actually a pretty good check against the Peter Principle.

It’s only hypocrisy if you believe that all people are equal. If you believe that some people deserve are privileged, then there is no contradiction.
