People are giving you the explanation: that the political system self-selects for corrupt people who serve the same masters. There is no way in unless you do, and if you somehow manage to do it, then you have to fight everybody else. So the corruption self-perpetuates.
You just don't like the explanation and ask people to give you another one, but there isn't.
The response I see are more arm chair expert than anything believable. I don’t blame people for providing these viewpoints - many of which I am sure are accurate to some degree; I just don’t think the reality is this simple. Will study further, just not on nostr.
You don't need to be a scholar to see how the political system works both in "representative democracy" regimes and even worse in others.
It's evident and transparent, in large measure because the corrupt elites have become so powerful and emboldened that they hardly even care to hide anymore, even in our "democracies".
Have you read Fredrick Bastiat? the first question of any legislation should be, "Is this the proper role of the law?" If you did outlaw it, would it stop the tech from being used?
From where I stand, if the tech exists, it will be used.
But it doesn't sound like you're asking about the tech as much as you're asking about it's usage. Outlawed for who, Citizens or Government?
