Everybody knows the classifcation system is ridiculous, that a zillion people have security clearances, and that there isn't any way for people to do their jobs while keeping the information walled off from reality. Also, too, anyone working too closely with people from the "wrong" countries, which supposedly are also the important countries to work with, is going to be under suspicion. And, then, there is of course complete inconsistency with how
people are treated.
