It's pretty easy to point to the obvious societal and economic benefits to the population of all of those examples.
Does the book explain why it believes said benefits are outweighed by their use in allowing the government to actually enforce taxes and laws?
- pjc50 7y agoThe map is not the territory. The argument is not that they are without benefit, but that there are downsides to people who don't fit the statistical model. For censuses, an example might be the list of religion, race or gender checkboxes. If your identity doesn't correspond to a checkbox, it appears not to exist.
