I've been (alliteration alert!) commenting on the cluelessness of congresscritters concerning Facebook a bit. Christopher Burg has as well. Reading his comments finally switched on the light bulb in my head that should have been burning bright the whole time.
Burg: "This is part of the reason why political solutions always fail. There is no requirement that the politicians understand the problem to which they’re providing a solution."
Me:
Oh, but the politicians do understand the problem.
The problem is always that the politicians don’t have enough power.
And the solution is always the politicians awarding themselves some more power.
