Incompetence

There’s a lot of that going around. First, the economy. Caused by a very shortsighted law forcing lenders to loan money to people who couldn’t ever repay it, supported by Fanny and Freddie, who “bought up” those bad loans to “keep the lid on” until it was “needed” to ensure a Democrat win in the 2008 election, and many other examples, for instance, the Minneapolis MetroDome, which collapsed because of heavy snowfall. It was built in Minnesota, where they KNOW the snowfall is going to be heavy, and made the roof out of some sort of canvas, FLAT, and not designed to shed snow. It has collapsed three times in the past, and still was not redesigned to withstand double digit inches of snow, as Denver’s DIA airport roof is designed to do (I think). There are many other examples of incompetence on the part of the people “running things” in this country, but I won’t mention them all (I couldn’t; there are too many). We need to do something to make sure the people we put in charge have at least a basic knowledge of what their job will entail. (Just common sense)
