NEWARK, N.J. (AP) — Two top officials at a New Jersey municipal water authority have been indicted on charges they hid elevated levels of a contaminant in the drinking water supply.
I
can easily imagine these guys telling their friends about hiding the
dangerous contamination levels, and everyone laughing about it.
Americans have been watching "comedies" that glorify stupidity for decades. They know how to do stupid now.
Folks
like this don't consider the effects of their actions. That kind of
thinking is alien to them. It's chilling to think that such people are
in charge of anything crucial. And they are.
