done is better than perfect
Seriously? This might be true for websites, but not for international legislation that potentially creates legally-binding terms that seriously disadvantage the citizens of one or more of the parties in perpetuity.
For a great example of this see the TPP, currently being negotiated in secret, which will almost certainly force my country (New Zealand) to accept the USA's terms on copyright protection and various other more important terms such as restricting access to generic drugs, raising the cost of healthcare for everyone. These terms benefit no-one except Hollywood and the pharma companies. In this case, done is considerably worse than perfect.
- pjc50 12y ago"Done" in this case is also considerably worse than "not done anything at all"! I do wish doing nothing was considered more often as a viable policy.
