1372: Antony Davies – The Humans Who Work in Government

W1372: Antony Davies – The Humans Who Work in Government
The faith that people unthinkingly place in government to accomplish goals is at the same time faith in the people who work in government. But people who work in government are no more knowledgeable, capable, motivated, or well-intentioned than their counterparts outside of government. Humans who work in government are the very same kinds of humans as those who don’t, and they are subject to all the same motivations like everyone else. So many people miss this fundamental point in so many ways that it is mind-boggling. —Antony Davies
