How naive of Brin to suggest this, and some might easily suggest that the best thing politicians can do is spednd their time sticking it to each other, that way they meddle less and avoid doing any real damage. Seriously though this post really shows how little Brin understands about how political systems work.
- olefoo 14y agoThis. Competence in one field does not imply understanding in another. Given Sergey's proclivities and interests, I'd say it behooves him to fund a "non-partisan" thinktank to look at the data and produce data-driven policy suggestions that are intended to influence all parties to government. Not that I would suggest that he become too personally invested in what happens after the suggestions make into the legislature; that way lies pain.
- randomchars 14y agoIdealistic != Naive Learn the difference. Also the posts also shows how little the writer understands what Sergey wrote. Read the G+ post.
