- samstave 9y agoyeah id say that DHS is bumbling - but I would say that the FAA & NTSB, for all their faults, has a freaking stellar track record. I admire them, but CMV
- jfoutz 9y agoimho, civil servants get a bad rap. We can all point out specific examples of government interaction sucking, but there aren't exactly a lot of comcast cheerleaders around. DHS may indeed be a disaster. I think if you talk to the actual people doing they work, you'll find they're generally smart capable human beings who want to do good work, but are hamstrung by insane bureaucracy. At the end of the day, that's really more our fault than theirs.

- paulmd 9y agoYes, these agencies are largely the reason that air travel is significantly safer than driving (or even crossing the street). They are pretty much the poster-children for how regulation should work, in a lot of ways. Not a popular opinion among the "move-fast-and-break-things" crowd but one you'll appreciate the next time you and 300 other people are strapped into a flying bomb.
