    I put out half of the fires that started in my kitchen, but my house still burned down! Putting out fires is a sucker’s game.

      If even after putting out fire the house burns down you do have to cut your loses and let the house burn down.

        That’s what I’m saying, man! I must have turned off the oven when I was done cooking a hundred times. And the very first time I don’t turn the oven off, it starts a fire. So what good did turning the oven off do?

          If you turn off the oven and it still catches on fire, that’s not a you problem, that’s a problem with the oven. No amount of turning the knob will make it safe.

            Yeah, it’s a manufacturer defect. Yesterday I made lasagna and turned it off when I was done. But today I made brownies and didn’t turn off the oven, and now my house is charred rubble! I’m suing the oven manufacturer

              I mean in your tortured metaphor, it’s no error, it’s explicitly a feature put there by the manufacturer. The guys who put the constitution together all agreed, democratic government should represent the wealthy land-owning elite and do as much as it can to capture and dissipate any broadly popular political movement from the classes below them. The shape and nature of the ruling class it works for has changed a little, but its still fundamentally that same system.
