> I don't think legislation/policy is the solution. We have seen time and time again that when the government steps in they create ineffective and ridiculous boundaries that do little in practice. I haven't seen that, though I know it's an idea that is commonly repeated. My drinking water, buildings, roads, car safety, airline safety, etc. are pretty good. MHO is that the 2008 financial crisis [EDIT: largely] was due to a lack of regulation. Government isn't perfect, but no institution or company is. Certainly private business is not, and at least I get a vote in how government does things. I don't see a technological solution to these problems and I think a legal one is the best idea.
