Well then unfortunately you just have no clue what you’re talking about. The notion that the CIA is “not limited” by checks and balances is beyond laughable. How many people have you met who work there? Ever talked with…
No no, the snide response works because this shutdown was a violation of aforementioned system. Downstream discussions on “oh hurrr ummm how do we decide what’s worth spending money on?!” are irrelevant. We already have…
Yes, I do. Perhaps you mean to say: I don't see it eliminating their misconduct and behavior.
Data be damned then! Good point.
Oh no, it's not because I don't understand the civic structure of my society. It's because your comment is poorly written. Want to give it another shot?
I can't understand what you're trying to say.
"The courts" writ large are doing just fine. SCOTUS in particular is a cesspool, but that is not the typical situation at all. And in any case, an imperfect adversarial judicial system is dramatically better than…
Agreed that money should be virtually eliminated from the system. That said, people actually tend to be pretty satisfied with their representatives. It's the other Congresspeople who suck.
> But at that point you’re just in an argument over which public services are most important to whom. Would be an interesting exercise to poll the public. We could probably break the country up into a bunch of…
Collecting and distributing weather data is a canonical example of a government function, even for the most ardent pro-market believers out there. I almost wrote "even for the most asinine pro-market believers," but…
> CIA regulates itself with its own supervision too That's not true lol. There is a gigantic supervisory apparatus constantly breathing down the IC's neck, including but not limited to your very own elected…
Private companies can pay for their own data collection and if they have a dispute with the government's analysis, they can go to court. Who exactly is going to pay for these non-governmental independent data…

no no, they mean some other thing, which is different in totally unexplainable ways and – most importantly – doesn't make one feel stupid for not knowing it existed

Just copy/paste my first comment back here
Uhhh no. I was pointing out the fallacy of GP portraying “government” outcomes (they’re the only ones that made a blanket statement) as somehow characteristically not generated by marketplace victories. Actually many…
Are you attempting to make an argument? Because just off-handedly referencing topic-du-jour doesn't exactly achieve that.
That's easily like a what... $10 million/year market? Checks out! (Only being snarky, obviously as a consumer it's great to have an option like this)
Wifi on Delta has worked spectacularly well (not sarcastic) for like 10 years now. It's been broken/unavailable on maybe 6 of my flights out of hundreds.
You know the point of democracy is that the government is also run by people who've proven themselves in a marketplace, right? It's just one where having more money doesn't entitle you to vastly more power, which is,…
I'm quite confident that the error was: "Despite potential warning signs, we believe Sam to be an ethical person" and not "We know that Sam is an unethical person, but that's either not a problem, or an actual asset…
Those are definitely not entirely orthogonal. Especially in business where most unethical behavior starts with or is sustained by deception, the two are very much related.
Yes, by and large the vast majority of the thousands of companies that YC invests in are probably behaving within ethical boundaries. While there's no shortage of horror stories and I think greater scrutiny/criticism is…
