Seriously? Maybe in Canadaland, but not in Amurka.The kind of nepotism we stereotypically think about, where someone totally unqualified and inept get's a job due to some connection, I think is very uncommon, at least in Western democratic countries.
Here's what one man, an anti-gun activist Senator from West Virginia, Joe Manchin was able to do. He is bar far not the only one pulling this kind of bullshit...but let's see what all he did:
Appointed his buddies to the WVU board of governors and presidency who awarded his unualified daughter with a Master's degree.

Additionally:

The Manchin family has firm political roots that extend throughout the state. Sen. Joe Manchin's son secured employment as a member of the West Virginia Tourist Commission and Manchin's cousin became the executive director of the West Virginia School Building Authority. Let's not forget that Manchin's daughter, Heather Bresch, was fraudulently granted a master's degree by West Virginia University. Joe Manchin even appointed his wife, Gayle, as a member of the West Virginia Board of Education.
This shit is going down, and you all have to get out of this fantasy mode of thinking. Businesses are willing to fuck themselves to help cronies.
You might get lucky...maybe you can join up and slip into this system or maybe...you could stand up for what's right and take the Occupy Wall Street values further and help me make some real changes!
