    Aviation, Shipping, Telecom, there’s loads of regulations in the EU…

    it isn’t the existence of regulations in the EU that annoys me, as standards, when done right, massively-reduce the “tax” of needless-waste, & needless-harm, …

    … rather, it is the standards being decided by things other than globally-elegant effectiveness & globally-elegant efficiency.

    Politics has NO proper place in government, yet humankind has handed the world to be outright-RULED by the coalition between political-machiavellianism-of-parties & moneyarchy, using their friend legalism for leverage against Justice ( the fight between legalism & moral-law is millenia-old ), & now physical-force/bullets has sided with the extremists of all sides, to “help” the world resolve to their victory, too…

    Sooo many dimensions of this stuff going-on, now…

    Anti-strategy, all of that.

    No matter: The Great Filter should finish doing its thing by the end of this century, & if anybody is left alive, then they will have grown-up, completely, as a population.

    if, though…

    … sigh …
