> This is frequently stated as fact, but no evidence is provided. I was referring to the U.S.; if you don’t live here I could see how you might come up with the conclusion That the state here is efficient. If you do live here it is more than apparent that there is no equilibrium of supplies and demands. Come spend a month in San Francisco, pay our taxes then tell me if you think the state is anywhere remotely close to efficiency. >Perhaps we could get SoftBank to measure government efficiency... Lol, or we could from the private sector build the tools necessary for the public sector as sort of a public good. This would be a great way for companies like Google and Facebook to have some positive PR when it comes to privacy. SoftBank is less a company but more of one man’s ego with capital. “Businesses” like that never last from generation to generation unless they have dumb luck. Again, I don’t think I need to cite lots of sources here for you when common sense makes things apparent.
