Similar to the problem in the US, where one party has been talking about how incompetent government is. For decades. And working to ensure that it is (so parts of it can be privatized). Now, look at it, when we need it.

I'd be much more likely to accept that this was causative if not for the existence of San Francisco and other one-party cities that nonetheless exemplify incompetent governance.
- andromeduck 7y agoI feel the same. SF turned me into a libertarian/neoliberal.
- lordlimecat 7y ago>where one party has been talking about how incompetent government is You ever been to a DMV? Or seen someone treated at the VA? Or heard how patents are issued at the Patent Office? The government is good at some things. It's really, really bad at others, and has zero accountability most of the time.
- e40 7y agoThe CA DMV is a model of efficiency. Really. Never had issues with it, in the last 2 decades. Yes, people like to complain about it, but I've been amazed how well they do what they do.
