If this isn't the most laughable logic I've ever seen then it's close....

11. It's a way of extending power to the powerless and is for some their only daily social event...

10. LOL
I almost have to laugh at the lunacy of this. Spending millions to keep these greedy, criminals in place. There would be MANY intelligent, well trained people willing to take their places without the damn pay raises/bonuses.
