I remember in Hitchhiker's Guide there was a little bit about the mice that studied us by participating in our lab programs. I await their prophesied manifestation into their true forms.

Governance is just reaching and maintaining a local maxima. Fuzzy algorithms are all you really need.

Keep most of the people, mostly happy, most of the time. Keep crime mostly low, most of the time. etc.

Yeah but what are you gonna do without us 'crats writing the fuzzy algorithms?
