It's truly a piece of incurious writing. Basically a mashup of all the Andy Rooney type "California, am I right?" gripe articles you've ever seen. Turns out that everything wrong with California is all the things it tried to do to protect consumers and residents. Nevermind that state and local government is not a monolith and lots of bad consequences stem from competing interests creating a stalemate.
- tomc1985 6y agoThis is exactly my point. That Uber legislation, for example, OF COURSE it's going to eviscerate exploitative business models, as that is exactly what it was designed to do. That privacy legislation means that I get a bit more control over my data than I had before. I'm all for making life harder for businesspeople that fail or don't want to take into account the human consequences and second/third-order effects of their "innovative thinking" and market "disruption"
