[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's a tiny fraction of people, but you are inserting yourself into that circle.[/quote] Not if it's coming up at your kids school or at a neighborhood potluck. Also I think people sometimes assume that this is only an issue among the truly powerful in DC-- people in the upper levels of government, media, politics, and business. Not true. The sad truth is that this attitude permeates all levels of DC culture even down to service workers (after all the more wealthy and connected someone, the more work they can throw your way if you are a personal trainer or waiter or landscaper) or like the most mundane government worker (many GS-14s are people who once had much bigger professional dreams and they still get high in proximity to power).[/quote]
