How a real government works
News item:
South Korea's defense minister dismissed for failing to respond to artillery attack from North.
That's how a healthy organization, whether government or church or business, behaves. It corrects an error by getting rid of the people who made the error.
Korea understands the basic purpose of a government, namely to protect the people of their OWN country from attacks, not to protect the "human rights" of SOME OTHER goddamn country.
Compare with what happened in DC after 9/11: Nobody resigned, nobody required to quit. The handful of heroic FBI agents who had tried to warn us of the impending attack were persecuted. In other words, the people who were right got in trouble, while the people who were wrong gained power and prosperity. ¶ 8:32 AM
