Your view of good appointments differs from mine.
My view of good appointments and your view of good appointments is utterly
beside the point.
And I'd point out that's the whole point! (Hey, I could
write Jack Sparrow's lines for the next PotC!)
And it illustrates why the absolute minimum government is the only sane
stance.
What's it called ... thinking .... the Jeavons Paradox. As something becomes
more efficient, we tend to use MORE of it rather than less. Gas being a good
example. As gas mileage went up, rather than entering a long age of cheap
transportation, we bought more cars and drove them longer distances.
One rarely escapes the paradox. If 'competent' people had prosecuted the
wars in Afghanistan and Iraq with far less waste, history and human nature show
we would have waged MORE war, not less. </HTML>
