Best and Brightest came out twenty years ago. It's a real stretch to suggest we're in the same world that we were in then in who "infests" Washington.
All I know is what I read and observe.

Read the first F. Scott Fitzgerald story from TALES OF THE JAZZ AGE. It was excellent till the end, when it fell apart. A true WTF resolution. Fitzgerald wrote marvelous prose, and knew how to cobble a story together, but his endings suck. I call them 'punts'.
Fitzgerald was famous (infamous?) for fudging his endings. One English teacher I had used him as an example of how not to end a story.
BLOCKHEADS and IMPOSTERS is what Charles Dickens called teachers. H.L.Mencken used pretty much the same terms, and added: WOMEN and 3rd RATE MEN.
Sampled one more F. Scott Fitzgerald story then deleted the file from my Kindle. But he did capture the stereotypes of bored, rich, young people of every era.
Can't help feeling that FSF was 'of his time'.
