Penal system

The term may refer to recidivism; any recurring contact of criminals with the criminal justice system is compared to the operation of a "revolving door". That is, a person who was recently released from a penal institution and is soon caught in further illegal activity is seen as doing a 180-degree turn as in a revolving door.

Political corruption or undue influence floating engineered wood floor

The expression may refer to various forms of corruption or unethical behavior, such as the phenomenon of failed company executives orchestrating a return to the business world, perhaps following criminal misconduct or bankruptcy; or collusion between defence procurement and defence suppliers (see, for example, Military-industrial complex). In American public service, this refers to government workers or elected officials who leave public service to work for the companies they used to regulate, creating a conflict of interest. For example, Boeing received a major contract from the US Air Force, but lost it when officials realized the contract had been negotiated by a USAF employee who left government service to take employment with Boeing as the contract was going into force. Darleen Druyun, the executive in charge of the contract, was fired and sentenced to nine months in jail for corruption and was fined $5,000. Before working for Boeing, she had previously been a civilian employee for the Air Force. She used her position to give Boeing this contract, rigging it to take effect as she left to work for them. In another example, government attorneys at the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) are charged with regulating attorney conduct, though they may be employed previously or subsequently by the same law firm they were supposed to regulate. reclaimed heart pine
