I don't want to add any more to our off topic discussion but I think my point is actually related. There is an epidemic of people thinking their organization their government etc are incompetants. Every organization is broken. Every management structure is bent on making up pernicious rules for their own amusment.
I mean in these threads it's a bit natural for us to spout our opinions about what OCTranspo should do but too often there is no thought to the tradeoffs.
