Re: Obama confirms he will create post of US chief technology..
said by Quake110  :I fail to see why some people are afraid of big government. It's usually a selective fear. The same people who rail over some new government intervention in free market practices are the same people who enjoy SEC regulation of the stock market (reducing one's caveat emptor); food and drug quality laws (which produce a level of quality a free market wouldn't); zoning laws and building codes (limiting how individuals may dispose of their property); societal creation of corporate entities (a fictional, yet legal 'person' to facilitate business in a way that the market alone won't).
You don't hear those people bellyaching about all that stuff which they take for granted.
