Never ascribe to malice that which is adequately explained by incompetence.

I’ll leave to you Bereans to ponder why this may be applicable to today’s political economy.  There are no bonus prizes (since this should be obvious), but you can provide your thoughts in the comments.. Keep them as nice as you can, even though you’ll be speaking the truth in love about incompetence!

 

EDIT Update:  I will however, award bonus points for the first person to correctly identify what scientific principle is illustrated in this quote.  Fellow Berean bloggers are also eligible.  What are the bonus points worth?  Hard to say, but surely invaluable.
