Pretty much.

This process was well underway in the mid-eighties when I started working.  This sort of crap tended to come from over eager Boomer middle management.  Welcome to my world as it has always been.  This too will probably pass but too late to do me any good.
Democracy is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard. -- H.L. Mencken

If one rejects laissez faire on account of man's fallibility and moral weakness, one must for the same reason also reject every kind of government action.   -- Ludwig von Mises
