re: #84 Puss Power
I find people that do the whole âgovernment canât do it rightâ tend to be willfully ignorant about how you could make government work. And a lot of the GOP folks saying this from their office are making it true not by being foolish, but because theyâre engaged in sabotage.
For example, look at how often efficiency estimates are ignored: how many people to do a job wellâŚthatâs time-motion, not politics, yet the GOP consistently cuts things to the bone, then attributes the failure in efficiency to some inherent quality of âgovernment.â
And they do the converse: not assessing the efficiencyâor base-rate efficacyâof contracted-out work and privatization.
