During the financial collapse of 2007/2008, I remember a coworker that had a TS/SCI and he was bragging about how he stiffed his mortgage lender. He was under water on his home loan, and decided to just walk away. I don't know how he kept his clearance. It seems that the issuance of security clearances is a tool of the deep state to keep the deck stacked with PC assholes. Also, there's a circle jerk that's occurring within the LDS church where they vet each other to get high clearances with the nuclear weapons complex and intelligence agencies. Most hiring within the government require a current security clearance. Too bad most of the clearances are held by PC douchbags.
