why do we (collectively, not you and I) suck at making rules that work as intended? we shouldn't be surprised that if you hand someone a gun they will shoot someone with it.

there was a tyler cowen piece about this a while ago, or maybe someone else at GMU basically the world is rife with opportunities for defection from eusocial norms and its just kind of remarkable that people almost never take these opportunities

my guess is that novel situations havent developed . . . whatever protective coating older situations have and so are more ripe for exploitation or maybe framing another way artificial regulations dont have the evolutionary stability of emergent norms

What fascinates me is the way in which progressive politics sometimes reinvents traditional morality. as a socialcon I sometimes don't know where I stand on it. I think I'm against it because of the grotesque manner in which it happens.

I think they reinvent traditional (in some sense) badly though, without the gentling institutions or subtleties that accrete over decades and centuries reinvented morality is often all sharp edges and guillotines and not peace but the sword and man against his father
