The profit motive compels a level of simplification and tunnel vision that, if anything, is more heroic that the early scientific forest of Germany. In this respect, the conclusions I draw from the failures of modern social engineering are as applicable to market-driven standardization as they are to bureaucratic homogeneity. | cite = [[James Scott]], "[http://www.cato-unbound.org/2010/09/08/james-c-scott/the-trouble-with-the-view-from-above/ The Trouble with the View from Above]" }}
