Default Something for the pot (Stability)

I enjoyed the railing against the Coastguard.
That's what it is to be American, after all.
A healthy disrespect for the folks who try to keep us safe(?)


Don't confuse the inspections branch of the CG with the people who go out in
boats and aircraft to keep us safe. The latter deserve enormous respect.
For that matter, it isn't the fault of the people now in the inspections
branch that they are stuck enforcing regulations poorly written decades ago.
