Maybe the standards should be higher to be an officer. People will say there area high standards, but clearly they're not high enough.

The twin sister to autonomy and freedom is responsibility and accountability. You cannot have one with out the other. If someone is given an area of responsibility, not only must they be set free to do it, they must also be held accountable for what they do. Accountability clarifies freedom.
