Organizers who “deliver” the votes are often rewarded with patronage jobs. However, patronage can result in poorer service to the citizens because appointees may be neither qualified for their jobs nor interested in performing them. Control of both elective and appointed posts also gives a machine control of government salaries and revenues, which can be used to enrich the party at the public’s expense. For example, the machine may accept donations or kickbacks from businesses in return for such favours as tax or zoning concessions or the award of lucrative public-works contracts. In some cities, machine business dealings have included accepting money from organized-crime syndicates in exchange for protection

What is the fundamental difference between the view of ball and kennan?
hammer [34]
The fundamental difference between the view of ball and kennan lies within whether United States should be or should not be involved in the vietnam war.
Ball supported United States' involvement because he believed it was a very important step to stop the spread of communism, while Kennan believed that we shouldn't be involved because it took too much of our resources.
