- thesimpsons1022 10y agoAt this point we are just being handwavy. This is the problem with discussions like this, there aren't any hard facts to support the arguments. Are people being forced to pay .1 pct more of their income or 10 pct more? etc...
- 1123581321 10y agoIt's not hand-wavy to try to convince BI proponents to at least consider second-order effects. But you're right; better modeling and experiments will be good for future discussions.
- thesimpsons1022 10y agoI agree. just saying that you can't assume the second-order effects will result in a net negative outcome on the whole system
