Can a whore monger be good governor?

A man who was regarded by some as a good governor,
recently resigned because in his private life
he also frequented prostitutes.


How does what a public servant does in their private life
have anything to do the eight hours a day that they are
public servants?

Some would argue; you can't trust a whore monger. wikilink

I would ask,
Why do think that you can trust any public servant?
More importantly, why should you have to?

Because there are things that they do in secret.

Why?

What do they need to do in secret?
The worst thing any public servant can do,
is anything they have to do in secret.

On top of that, were public service an institution where
there are meaningful standards, and adequate, transparent
accountability we wouldn't have to trust them to do their
jobs honestly and well. They would have no choice but
to do their jobs honestly and well.

Accountability is fatal to incompetence and corruption.

If there were honest accountability to meaningful standards
for public servants within their public service;

there would be no need to trust anybody.

Paula Maes and the leadership of the APS would that you
"trust" them with a billion tax dollars and 89,000 of our kids;
in lieu of meaningful standards of competence and conduct.


For me,
I'd rather; honest accountability to meaningful standards

than "trust" any day.




It's only for eight measly hours a day.
