THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING IMPORTANT

Moderator of the ABC's afternoon news comment show, "The Drum" just said about the upcoming G-20 "With a lot of important people now arriving in Brisbane...." Two eyebrows (mine) shot skyward.

A bunch of people holding important positions are coming, that's certain, but important people? I don't think those two should be confused.

I've just come through dealing with a bunch of people who hold important positions, but all bar one of those people are of no import whatsoever. I think that situation is mirrored in both the SA State and Federal Parliaments.

How many people who get to be in important positions are overcome with delusions of adequacy?

What do you think?
