This is an amazing start… that goes nowhere. The author says we can analyze the Plimsoll line and then doesn’t except for one case in Google based on personal experience. It would be very interesting to see an analysis of boards of directors, executive boards, etc. But I also see people’s points that it’s not much of a “line” in reality. Take Craig Federighi, Apple’s SW VP. It’s obviously a mix between “appointee” (knowing the right people) and “technocrat” (demonstrated skill working in software engineering). Same with government. Saying the “political class” is appointed based on “political affiliation” is not quite right. How do you distinguish Nancy Pelosi from the average California democrat? Political expertise and experience, which is technocratic acc. to the article. Even someone like Trump, there is a certain “skill” there in public manipulation and sheep-herding. I’d gladly read a more in-depth second take.
