Complexity: Gov. Palin - "No Bureaucracy Should Stand In The Way of Special Needs Kids"

The video clip linked to in the previous post, at the Pharyngula blog, shows the captioned caption at the bottom of the clip.

It strikes me that in the West, and (I believe) notably in the USA, we suffer from much too much "either / or".  Issues are always being simplified down to binary choices.

The Pharyngula blog post rightly mocks, in rightly indignant tone, the recent stump speech by Caribou Barbie (aka Vice-presidential candidate Palin) in which she mocks fundamental genetic research.

I think it's becoming clear that the only stance she has is "I am against government doing anything for people except giving them back their money".

We misunderestimate (yes, used on purpose ;-), at our peril, the usefulness of bureaucracy in getting us to where we are today, in terms of the infrastructure that affords us a relative life of ease, leisure and the benefits of the many many discoveries that have come before and then been incorporated into the framework of our daily lives.

Without some or much of the bureaucracy in the areas of research and medical care that has gone before, the "special needs" kids to which MooseLips is referring would have been dashed to death upon the rocks down by the river where she would be washing the family clothes, I think.
