Except, in today's world instead of "or" I would use, "and" because that's exactly what we have observed. Perhaps Kakistocracy's evolve too even though spell check does not.
Well, I'll be. It is an actual word with a bonafide definition. I thought it was something OUC had made up. He uses it a lot, and now I understand why. Good show.
If anyone ever expects anything less stupid from any government or government sponsored agency, they should get into the stupid line themselves. The best way to determine if a project will fail or overrun costs is to let the government handle it.
Actually ... They are looking for the best and brightest and then the hierarchy treats the screeners as though they don't have a brain cell functioning.
Take the test to get into the TSA (if it still the same one that I took in 2003) and you will be astonished how few people can pass it.
The problem is: The upper management is filled with military types, police types, government types and Catholics. Military types obey orders. Police types obey rules. Catholics obey rules and orders ...AND government types seek absolute power.
That is the combination that creates all the nonsense. Anyone with brains or talent who won't blindly obey is ousted with false accusations and is written up and terminated by edict of the hierarchy.
I believe the idea is to retain the sound of DHS and use DIS or DISS which is a better descriptive sound anyway Directorate of Internal State or of State Security. Add the double Baraks on the collar of a standard black SWAT outfit and good to go.
I heard at one time that people with more than 100 IQ were discouraged from becoming Cops...have no idea if that's true but I have seen plenty of examples and I wonder how those above 100 IQ can stand it.
And Yes...I still think it's just a measure of assimilated information.
To the back of the class with you!

If you translate it you will know how I feel. If you have delicate sensibilities you might want to skip the translation.
Kakistocracy: Government by the least qualified or most unprincipled citizens.[Greek kakistos, worst, superlative of kakos, bad; see caco- + -cracy.]
