gollark: Are you casting things to floats too much?

gollark: Well, it's obvious, the file named fisible is unknown and something something unk random number equals other random number.

gollark: Also, laws are often about complicated issues which people have no idea about. Now, frequently the politicians will have no idea about them too, but in general having dedicated people able to take lots of time to learn about the issue is better than random people with lots of other stuff to do. Although it has other downsides.

gollark: I don't think I agree, having direct input would expose it to the whims of whatever random controversy has happened *more*.

gollark: And "oh bees [BAD THING] happened so now we must immediately respond to it in some stupid way".
