THE LAST WORD

"Is there a place for the eunuch in the modern world? The harem hardly
exists (outside Utah and Hollywood, anyway), but civil servants are
more numerous than ever. Like cockroaches and intellectuals, they
multiply madly and you can't get rid of them. Perhaps castration is
the answer. I suggest that we require civil servants to be eunuchs. I
don't say this out of cruelty: the operation could be performed
surgically, with anesthetic. It would be voluntary. But it would be
our assurance that our civil servants really wanted to serve. Am I
asking too much? I don't think so. After all, these people exercise
great power over us; we pay them generously for oppressing us; and
they have almost absolute job security. Shouldn't they be willing to
give something back? Putting someone on the government payroll is
nearly as irreversible as castration. As things now stand, calling
such people our 'servants' is a sour joke. They are our masters.
Asking them to make a small sacrifice would be no more than requiring
a pledge of good faith, a sign that they aren't in it for selfish
gain. Most of them probably wouldn't be giving up much anyway. Call me
a dreamer, a starry-eyed idealist, a deluded utopian, but I think this
would be a very practical reform. It would weed out the self-seeking
careerists, now all too common, who grab government jobs with no
intention of serving anyone's interest but their own. We would be left
with a solid corps of truly dedicated people whom we could call our
'public servants' without sarcasm." --Joseph Sobran

A politician without his d**k? Isn't that an oxymoron?

I wonder If Hillary would be willing to get castrated?
