There’s simply no way to make even the smallest positive adjustments in a system which is so perfectly politically calibrated to always result in the worst possible outcomes under all circumstances.

In particular, if anybody can name an instance in which the MTC and its executive director have ever acted in the public interest I’d be surprised to hear it.

It only there were an afterlife — there’d be so much burning in hell to be done.
