> LAVINGIA: That's another thing I learned. It's not like-- there's no easy wins. The government is not corrupt. The government is really not wasteful. The government commits to doing a lot of things for its citizens, but generally, it executes on them decently well, full of amazing, hard-working, educated people. Is it too nice to those people? Maybe. Is it too nice to citizens? Maybe.

“The government is too nice to its citizens” is not a take I was expecting today. That’s… bizarre.
