For a while now it feels like the left and the right are attempting to one-down each other on how stupid they can get. That proposal seems like an example of the left trying to out-stupid Trump and the alt-right. Don't worry I'm sure the right is working on things even dumber than this, and then those will have to be topped, and so on. In 2024 we will have Dr. Oz and Marjorie Taylor Greene running against Oprah Winfrey and Kamala Harris.

I'm not sure how this downward spiral ties into the administrative position over saturation problem, but I have the intuition that it does somehow. Maybe what we have are a whole ton of people who don't really know how to do things who vote. Voting is ultimately a hiring decision, so what we get is a voting process that hires a whole bunch of either administrators who themselves don't know how to do things or crackpots because people without practical knowledge can't spot a crackpot.
