      a) your interminable chiptune bleepout in the Steven Godofsky episode, ended by you two agreeing that that just now was super interesting is taking “the podcast that actively harms its audience” to art form levels

      b) re: @politicalmath episode – “why is government bad so often” – “how can we make this more effective” seems to suffer from the same problem as many trads; i.e. assuming they and their values would be on top; arguably the most effective government in the world today is … oh no

      IMO well treated by von Mises who came out strongly pro-bureaucracy (ironic given his promoters these days) arguing that the issue is scope, not method; pretty good brochure of his:https://mises.org/library/bureaucracy …

      hmmm read the summary his view is that bureaucracy is fine, the problem is its scale and breadth of mission?

      yeah, with a focus on legal certainty: inflexible process is great at that

      wonder if that’s actually true anymore since social technology for manipulating procedural outcomes has made such leaps since

      yeah this is my concern i think a limited bureaucracy can work in some circumstances but the scope creep is inevitable, inexorable

          “limited? limited by what?” apropos, loved the term “oughtism” your coinage?

          Meta-System is ultimately self limiting - multicellular life shows the way - but need to ensure paroxysms on the way to well-self-regulation do not destroy all component entities hence we must go to the ‘belt/orbital habs/the moone/mars etc.
