      I mean we don’t, my government can spend tens of billions on literally nothing and then spend millions more investigating where all that money went. We certainly have democracies but part of what we vote for is who’s raiding the public purse.

        Any system more complex than you managing your own wallet is going to hemorrage resources. And even you hemorrage money when you manage your own wallet. Its better than the alternative. There has never been a perfect system and there wont be either.

          Completely true but I would still appreciate a bit less blatant cronyism, like when X company is paid for product, delivers crap, then is paid again to dispose of the crap they just delivered.
