The government not policing the deal would certainly be their fault.
- enraged_camel 7y agoIs the government intentionally not policing it due to nefarious reasons, or do they simply not have the money and/or the expertise to police it?
- notatoad 7y agoit's not really a question of expertise, if you don't have it you can hire it. And as long as they keep giving out more subsidies, it can't really be a question of not having enough money either.
- enraged_camel 7y agoYou can hire expertise, assuming you have the budget for it. And that budget is completely separate from the pot of money out of which subsidies are doled.

- closeparen 7y agoGiving out incentives without the resources and expertise to ensure we’re actually getting the intended benefit is squarely in the middle of “the government’s fault.”
