Doyle;
One reform that could be implemented rather cheaply is to keep better
records in the national human statistics. With some statistics like
murder being carefully shielded from public knowledge as an example.
Right wing victims rights forces have over rode common sense in terms
of what society needs to know to properly address the social fabric.
Cops keep records, security forces keep records, but the public need
to know is shrouded. This fundamentally hamstrings socialist policy.
Further this knowledge is not just for experts. For example in Europe
where pay scales are public knowledge this allows in the U.S. an end
to HR road blocks to examining the discrimination in pay scales. No
corporation has a right to hide their discrimination from the public
eye.
thanks,
Doyle Saylor
