I happen to agree with you. That is probably why there are so many DS people in the agencies - because the good people can't in good conscience stay. My overarching point was there are good people - at least for a little while. They don't deserve to die for wanting to serve their country. If they stay and get corrupted then all bets are off.
I had a friend that was NSA around 2000, until he burnt out for much of the same reasons. He quit and we worked together doing pen tests at a large company. I had been out of the AF for about a year or 2 by then. I had been recruited by a couple of agencies because of my cyber skills but I knew better than to go that direction because of the backstabbing that goes on in USSS, OSI, CID, etc. My friends gave good advice.
[Edited - the "good people" is not the same as that fraud Hannity's "good people" - I'm not saying 97% are good like he used to. Just to be clear.]
