    It’s a dead-simple concept that can be applied to everything: public money should only be used for public services. If the private sector is viable, it shouldn’t need public money to prop it up.

    Public money should fund public transit. No public money for private transport infrastructure.

    Public money should fund public schools. No public subsidies for charter and private schools.

    Public money should fund public health care. No public funding should be wasted on propping up a wasteful private healthcare industry. ACA wastes so much money buying insurance for people when we could just build public hospitals and public clinics.

    It’s not that private industry shouldn’t exist. It’s just that private industry, conceptually, shouldn’t need to be propped up by social funding. But currently it is. And it’s a tremendous waste of money. Public money should only fund public programs. So simple.






  • I’ve mostly switched from Fusion to Onshape. Fusion does have features Onshape doesn’t have, but most of them are beyond the needs of someome designing models for 3D printing.

    Onshape seems to respect their users, and Autodesk treats you like shit. Fusion has all sorts of logic errors that cause it to perform terribly or crash. And it still has all sorts of weird DPI display issues.

    So, I corroborate your impressions. I don’t think you have to give Fusion a fair shake, your impression is spot-on.
