“Universities are an example of organizations dominated wholly by intellectuals; yet, outside pure science, they have not been an optimal milieu for the unfolding of creative talents.

“Remember, government is not an enlightened organization designed to promote public welfare. It is barbaric, uncivilized force…military and police power put to the service of the insiders who control it. Yes, there are constraints on the way the insiders use their power. There are ‘checks and balances,’ built into the constitution, for example. And there are cultural norms and traditional prohibitions. But eventually, the norms and traditions wear off, like painkillers. And then, the pain of raw government begins again.” WayUseGovernmentPainRememberExampleBalanceBuiltTraditionOrganizationConstitutionPoliceChecksTraditionalWelfareEnlightenedNormConstraintsProhibitionBegin AgainInsidersBarbaricUncivilizedPainkillersPolice PowerPublic Welfare Author:Bill Bonner
“In any bureaucratic organization there will be two kinds of people: those who work to further the actual goals of the organization, and those who work for the organization itself. Examples in education would be teachers who work and sacrifice to teach children, vs. union representative who work to protect any teacher including the most incompetent. The Iron Law states that in all cases, the second type of person will always gain control of the organization, and will always write the rules under which the organization functions.” PeopleWritingKindChildrenPersonsTwoStatesWould BeLawGoalTeachCasesTeacherSacrificeExampleTypeProtectGainsOrganizationFunctionUnionsIncludingInvestingIronRepresentativesIncompetent Author:Jerry Pournelle

“Every notable advance in technique or organization has to be paid for, and in most cases the debit is more or less equivalent to the credit. Except of course when it's more than equivalent, as it has been with universal education, for example, or wireless, or these damned aeroplanes. In which case, of course, your progress is a step backwards and downwards.” Has BeensCoursesEducationStepsCasesProgressExampleOrganizationUniversalPaidCreditTechniqueBackwardsNotableAeroplanesWirelessUniversal EducationDebit Book:The collected works of Aldous Huxley Source: The collected works of Aldous Huxley
“Where there is a confluence of interests among nations, as, for example the swine flu or polio, you can get well functioning international institutions like the World Health Organization.

“It's a very simple example to show that if you miss one step in a process in can cost you an enormous amount of time and money to fix.
