What I worry about in government

  • Autonomy Protection
    • The ethical issue
  • Economic Growth maximization
    • Stagnation via over-regulation
    • Stagnation via rent-seeking
    • Transaction costs minimization
    • The knowledge problem
  • Protecting the weak from the strong
    • Citizens from government actors
    • Poor from rich/connected.
    • Victims from predators, foreign or domestic.
    • Foreign victims from our predatory government
How do you protect the weak from the strong, who are mostly government actors, maximize economic growth, and preserve maximum autonomy for all ? As AMcGuinn says...it's a hard problem.
