Shitlibs and other servile apple polishing system drones are at a loss to explain the failures of the alleged meritocracy. I waded through a wall of words attacking Scott Adams' snarky attitude towards pointy haired bosses without finding a single attempt to explain the obvious reality of inept managers, bosses, generals and CEOs everywhere.
Largely this is due to nepotism, logrolling by fellow incompetents, ethnic mafias, and all the other variations of the old boy's network. But if this is true then the pig system may indeed have been captured by such a corrupt network, and the only solutions are outside it.
That is something a system shill can never contemplate, so he pisses on Dilbert's grave instead.
