Response to the SEC porn watching thing
It has just come to my attention that during the panic of the financial crisis, the SEC has been watching porn while our country goes belly up. Yes, porn. Sexually explicit or sexually suggestive material has been found on government computers and at least 33 SEC employees or contractors have been essentially caught with their pants down on "official" time. Since more than half of these diligent, hard working individuals make between $99,000 and $223,000 per year while I currently am barely scraping buy on a few bucks an hour (without time for any porn watching), I am incensed by this. These cases all took place within the last 5 years, which, if I remember correctly, was a pivitol moment for our country in regards to finances. To my further disappointment, it was not merely the lowly office drones who might have been spending a little too much time in the office for too long due to the crisis, it was the senior agency staffers. And as if that isn't bad enough that they were doing it at all, the amount of time that some individuals spent doing it was pretty astounding to me. Acoording to this article in Associate Press, SEC Inspector General David Kotz posted a memo detailing certain cases. An SEC senior attorney spent 8 hours a day watching porn on a company computer. He ran out of hard drive space so he burned all his smut to cds and had them in boxes around his office. If I wasn't so outraged by this, I might admire on some sick level the life that this man had carved out for himself. Get paid the big bucks to pleasure yourself all day, maybe look at a few boring legal documents about the country being out of money or something, clock out, go home and relax after a hard days work. My life currently looks absolutley nothing at all like this in any way, shape, or form. Can somebody please tell me what I am doing wrong?
