They say teenagers are impatient and impulsive with short attention spans, they want what they want and they want it NOW, with shortcuts that bypass the blood, swear and tears.
What they usually fail to say is that so many adults fit that profile with seemingly no self-awareness whatsoever, and a plague of them are in government.
Adults in a position of authority and responsibility, yet with that level of hypocrisy and immaturity, is a thousand times worse than any of the hollow criticism they might care to throw at any of "those impatient teenagers".
"Back in my day things were..." Let me stop you right there. Back in your day things were just as shit as today, no better. You mediocre creature in a position of responsibility, you.
Those leaks are just officials pointing the finger trying to dodge blame in case things don't go well. At least according to Michael Koffman.
