Each of the professions means a prejudice. The necessity for a career forces every one to take sides. We live in the age of the overworked, and the under-educated; the age in which people are so industrious that they become absolutely stupid.

Person 2: Extremely careless - doesn't that basically mean she was grossly negligent? I thought that gross negligence in transmitting classified information is prosecutable under the Espionage Act. Sounds like she should be considered a criminal.
