As someone who have escaped from places with public housing and healthcare provision, I suspect you were never really experiencing that. Some place for wise regulation - maybe.
That said, a parallel is very poor. Modern academia is a zero sum morally corrupt game, guilty of many sins on its own.

- pizza 6y agoMaybe you should elaborate on why you think academia is a zero sum game. Like e.g. for one researcher to get a grant, another one doesn't?
- juskrey 6y agoLike you have said, this is obvious. Same with academic positions. In real life, if you think you know better, you go start your own business and don't wait until all your enemies die out.
- geomark 6y agoHaving experienced, in a couple of very different countries, the difference between public and private housing and healthcare I know which one I prefer. No experience as an insider in academia so can't comment on that.
