The debate is fairly pointless, govt will do whatever they want anyway.<p>The vast majority of people just vote down predestined party lines, and swing voters aren&#x27;t all the bright educated people we like to think they are. It&#x27;s just a fact that half of all people are of below average intelligence.<p>Politicians should be a better than average cohort for intelligence, but judging by the incomprehensible jabber they espouse on tech matters I doubt it&#x27;ll change anytime soon. They seem to spend most of their time trying to dick each other over and make themselves look good rather than actually get shit done.
