“When you make a mistake, usually there is a negative feedback loop, which lets you know you’re headed in the wrong direction. You borrow too much money, for example, and your creditors begin trailing you with court orders or baseball bats. But in a major public policy disaster, the feedback loop is twisted. The feds spend too much money, for example… and give the bill to the next generation. The poor youngsters can’t vote. Many are not even born yet. A police state is a disaster. It has its own ways of bending the feedback loop. Every public policy disaster produces zombies. And armed zombies protect themselves… with arms, naturally.”
