BI NOW GAY LATER posted:a modern constitutional convention would be insanity Yeah but if everyone perceives the alternative as worse, insanity wins. I think the potential of being out of power for years while the opposition has free rein during realignment could be seen as worse.

I don't think it's just MBA programs. Nobody has ever said "My favorite part of working in corporate America is all the immoral backstabbing weasels." Honestly if they all got fired it probably wouldn't even increase our workloads all that much.

foobardog posted:If you want to be cynical and marxist about it, they don't really exist to make the grunt's jobs better, but to provide a blanket of deflection from capital and labor. That's not cynical, that's Manichaean. Everybody's perfectly trustworthy except for one group that just happens to be the singular manifestation of all evil in the world. Anything else could only happen with their blessing and to their benefit. Cynics find it hilarious that anybody would trust those guys to gently caress over everybody but the shareholders when those are the most profitable marks around.

STAC Goat posted:I rode one of those Disney ones when I was a kid and I'm not sure I've ever been more scared in my life. I really can't imagine riding one of these things as public transportation. Intellectually I know they exist and they're probably a lot safer than I think and that's high density cable and if a bunch of people had died on these things I'd know. But I can't get past the idea that I'm riding in a box dangling on a wire. I'm now imagining a morning commute filled with abject terror. http://www.theatlantic.com/photo/2013/08/stalins-rope-roads/100577/

Harik posted:I've read that before, thanks for the reminder. I think they tried some of everything over the years. I think that the entire philosophy behind it is to build things so that the less safety critical bits corrode through first and hope that they replace the more safety critical bits at the same time.
