    No, I’m saying that very factor will kill the whole project. They don’t understand how any of it works, why it has to work the way it does (at least to some extent), and things will go wrong because of it. As those things pile up, it’s going to be increasingly clear that they are creating more problems than they’re solving, and they will have to spend increasingly amounts of time solving those problems rather than moving the project forward.

      They don’t care if it creates problems because they’ll explain it away as short term, transition, private market will solve it because the private market solves everything, etc. That’s the point of “burn it all down”, they don’t care. Everything will go wrong in our eyes, but in their eyes it’s not wrong.

        Doesn’t matter. Certain things have to be done correctly. Orwellian Rightthink doesn’t work in the long run; you can say that 2+2=5 all you want, but if you’re making a car, it has to be 4. This will affect the billionaire Republican donors, and then they’ll start caring.

          Sorry but you’re seriously missing the point: they don’t care.

          All these things you care about working correctly, they don’t care. To them it doesn’t have to be done correctly. To them it doesn’t have to be done at all. To them the magical private sector will solve it. Republican donors will probably profit off it.

            When Musk starts losing rockets due to bad weather data out of the husk of NOAA, will they start caring then? Reality has a way of forcing the issue.

              No they won’t. I’m serious, they don’t care. If things going “wrong” it just means they haven’t privatized enough and haven’t burned down the government enough.

              Reality? They don’t live in reality.
