My long article on Democracy is the cover story in TIME this week https://t.co/2z20QoIIaW

[Alec Fraser @captainafraser]

@stavridisj There Is one more case that democracy will survive: it is doing very well at the local level. Elected officials are held accountable for non-global issues like local transportation, local safety, local schools, and local taxes. If they fail, democracy boots them.

By charging ship commanding officers with negligent homicide has the Navy gone too far?

Total accountability is the rule at sea. Wish it were that way ashore too. https://t.co/3ovHTVLgcK

Who is at fault in recent Navy...or any...ship collisions?
Here is the answer in a WSJ article published in 1952. The rule of accountability ought to apply ashore as well as this editorial so well states. I read it often when I was a Navy ship captain. https://t.co/12Fv4DwWEa

Good summary https://t.co/TAx40sNFbO on how two U.S. Navy destroyers collided with other ships: lack of paying attention, lack of training, and failure of the captain. my comments at https://t.co/eQzTqQH4kF
