No, that's the broken window fallacy.
- floydnoel 3y agoIndeed. I think it is one of the biggest issues in society. Prevention is seen as wastefulness and often de-prioritized. Meanwhile heroics after a disaster capture media attention and praise. This has been observed in fields as diverse as business & management, construction & maintenance, government, and of course economics. It is a fallacy so common, we can even find it here on HN! Wish I knew of a solution, any ideas?
