@AoDespair If your critique is “big corporations are succeeding at rent-seeking and regulatory capture” I agree in general and that may we’ll be exactly what went wrong here. — PolitiTweet.org

@TheHyperCritic @AoDespair Yes, exactly, those are different problems, and one can imagine other scenarios. It’s important to figure out where precisely the problem was—like the NTSB does!—and the “capitalism needs guardrails!” rhetoric, while generally true, is not apt here — PolitiTweet.org

@AoDespair But a story where (say) the regulatory agency was underfunded and therefore relied on insiders more than it should have suggests the problem is insufficient public sector investment, not no fetters or concerns save profit — PolitiTweet.org
