The one potential result of this event (added to the ones involving that kid from Germanwings and the guy in the Citation) is that the Perfumed Princes of the Kackistocracy, who only do things to benefit themselves and their insatiable lust for power rather than any benefit to the serfs and peasants, is getting their handpicked shrinks to evaluate the mental health of airline pilots...with the ability to end a career.

This should make your blood run cold.

Drug and alcohol testing is one thing but at least there is a measure of science (at some point subject to inevitable human failure in its analysis) in your corner. But anything involving a government shrink is tantamount to seeing the evil village witch doctor for an evaluation using subjective voodoo “science”.

Time will tell where this goes, if anywhere, but you ought to be concerned.
