As a pilot, you can’t anticipate when a rising tower of air develops. But when you just let the plane do its thing, it actually moves through the complexity easier than intervening.
There are two things that complex systems science taught us back in the 1990s. 1. More data does not improve predictions in proportion to the amount of data collected. 2. Efficient systems are not controlled from the top down, but from the bottom up, plus feedback from the whole. Back then, I thought those discoveries would be the end of big government. How naive I was. We are now on a short path to AI technocracy, which will be worse than the worst bureaucracy on steroids.
Ron Paul had it right. We need public servants who work tirelessly to dismantle terrible do-gooder agencies and departments of government. And repeal as many laws and regulations as we can ... not create even more.
But once an agency is created it's impossible to abolish it. They all grow.
