Authorizing airstrikes and the upper hand–plus hypocrisy. The President’s ultimate authority, a hierarchy of authorities from Congress,  and shackling elected leaders. Higher stakes with bigger bombs, breaking rice bowls to reorient the military, and cake-eating officers. Active combat or nothing. The bell curve of anti-authoritarian, curious, problem-solving, decentralized SEALs walking a fine line of productive citizens and criminals. Fostering a creative, harmonious tactical force without creating biker gang criminals.
