GTA V: 10 Unfortunate Consequences Of Living In Los Santos

8. Infiltrating Places Is Shockingly, Disturbingly Easy

I know nobody likes the idea of €˜Big Brother is watching you,€™ but still, we expect the state to have some power. We expect them to organise some sort of efficient bureaucracy, to make sure the bins get emptied on time and that certain services remain open even in difficult times. A more appreciated but somewhat less visible function of the state is to keep potentially dangerous technology under lock and key. Otherwise, it€™s going to turn into The Sum Of All Fears, and I€™ve got bad news €“ we€™re fresh out of Ben Afflecks. So when the Los Santos Government keeps expensive military hardware €“ like, for instance, fighter planes €“ out in the open, you€™d assume there€™s all sorts of guarding procedures that only the most Machiavellian of characters can fool. Yet alas, this isn€™t the case €“ apparently even the best-laid plans can be gazumped by a tweeking, unwashed hillbilly blundering his way into Fort Zancudo in a bashed-about pick-up truck. It€™s not even one of these intelligence screw-ups you can sweep under the rug. No, this particular balls-up parks itself stubbornly in public view, defying explanation. After all, it€™s a rare man who hasn€™t stolen a Hydra jet and immediately not thought to go careening back toward the city lights and drop shock and awe from above. It€™s the sort of rain when an umbrella isn€™t going to cut it, and it€™s made possible through, shocking, shocking negligence. I€™m surprised they don€™t sack the top brass more often over there.
