Hi Platt, You said: An excellent lesson in unintended consequences of government action in the name of the "public good."
I liked your description of this process..unintended consequences...and I am just braining off the top of my head: The ' measure' or policy Govt.puts into place( enforces/encourages..whatever) i.e. as intellectual PoV, when put into practice i.e.'translated' into social PoV's starts to lead a life of its own and indeed develops into creating/pointing to unintended consequences. Is this an example of how some Int.PoV's are 'out-of-touch' with Soc PoV's? Put plainly: are we talking about a huge generation gap here? A case of one not understanding or misunderstanding the other?
