Another great little article from TCS daily. I love this line:

It's as though aid agencies need to fail in their targets in order to maintain their missions. After all, if their programs succeeded they'd put themselves out of business.

It's the same story with doctors and politician. If doctors actually Cured things instead of just treating them they'd lose business. And if politicians actually solved problems they would diminish their hold over the mass consciousness of their slaves constituents.

Yes, very true! I've heard of this idea before in regards to government programs. Like with the free lunch program, the more kids that sign up the more money the schools get, and it doesn't seem to matter if the kids signing up are really in need. They just want more money!
