We need a directorate of science, and we need it to be voted on only by scientists. You don't get to vote on reality. Get over it. Elected officials that deny the findings of the Science Directorate are subject to immediate impeachment for incompetence.

Around here, last few days, seems like more of that than anything else.

I have to ask myself, "what were they thinking?"

Voting to screw 20 million potential voters? That was really stupid.

This is the problem with 20th Century thinking that didn't work in the 20th century.

Two possibilities come to mind:
- they weren't thinking.
- they were thinking they could deflect the blame on someone else.

I guess they if they fooled enough people for just long enough they could make it work:

The problem is that they are playing the politics of scarcity in climate of abundance. And limiting peoples choice when they were making the best decision for themselves.

I think that this comes under the pattern of no Sh!t Sherlock:

They didn't seem to understand that this wasn't some shopping "experience." This was about trying to make the correct life choices.

The more I look at the healthcare debacle, the more I ask myself, "what were they thinking?"

The problem with overconstrained systems is that they don't have the flexibility to resolve themselves to the real world. The more complicated and bigger the system the looser the coupling have to be for the system to function at all.

Still sounds like anti-democracy, anti-freedom rhetoric propaganda about how we need Mao to tell us all what to do.

I got bad news. This is the US. We don't do personality cults the way y'all do. Too independent.

Problem being you're not proposing anything different. Just the same with you in charge.

Typical.
