It should be a slap in the face hard enough to make anyone and everyone rethink how their methods are measured.'<br /><br />I agree 100%. But what do you think the chances are that this will shake people up enough, so that they will move to be more efficient? What are the chances that this will just breed even more bureaucracy? 'Cause it's the latter that seems to be the case all over the world. If bureaucracy doesn't work, what is the usual answer? EVEN MORE bureaucracy. More laws, more policies, more soulless procedures, more clueless bureaucrats to oversee clueless bureaucrats.<br /><br />When horrific thinks happen, such as this, people even DEMAND government meddling, from the same government that failed consistently to do anything about it. A majority does not want to solve the problem, they want someone else to solve it.<br /><br />Case in point:<br />https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=64G5FfG2Xpg<br /><br />I see this as a world-wide tendency. There are never fewer laws regulating more effectively, just more and more increasingly ineffective or even hindering ones. Not just in gun laws and prevention of child victimization, but business, environment protection, agriculture, education, you name it.<br /><br />The form is that if we regulate the hell out of it, then it is well regulated. No regard for efficiency, no goal-oriented problem solving.<br /><br />As you put it, in self-defense, everyone studies the solutions, but few look at the problem. The same is happening in bureaucracy. There is a huge increase in disconnect.<br /><br />So what do we do, how do we stop this, how do we reverse the trend? I've been thinking long and hard on this, but I see no way to stop what seems to be -at least to me- an avalanche.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18252994838965155356noreply@blogger.com
