I have to say this, 'cos it's true. While I learned a few things, the discussion at over at jblum was almost entirely made out of hot air. Here, I'm being deluged with evidence - facts, figures, personal stories.
That doesn't mean it's impossible to object to the proposed reforms, or details of the proposed reforms, on the basis of evidence, but horribly, I have the impression that bullshit isn't just the weapon of choice, it's a very effective one. But then, after a decade of Howard, I have no excuse for being surprised by that.
