“The calculus for joining government is radically changing. The promise of gaining control of enormous dark money government slush funds and routing them to your friends who stand up totally vague and nebulous NGOs that then launder the money back to you and your other friends, is disappearing before our eyes. People who go into public service will actually have to be motivated by public service, not by kleptocratic, self-enrichment schemes. If they want to get rich, they will have to write a book or "produce" some show or documentary for Netflix that no one watches.”
