- 2:54me
- 2:55of
- 2:55government
- 2:55decision
- 2:55making
- 2:56is
- 2:56fascinating.
- 2:57And
- 2:57you've
- 2:57seen
- 2:57this
- 2:58strategy
- 2:58happen
- 2:59at
- 2:59the
- 2:59very
- 2:59highest
- 2:59levels
- 3:00of
- 3:01power.
- 3:01Now,
- 3:01most
- 3:02people
- 3:02think
- 3:02that
- 3:02the
- 3:02government
- 3:03moves
- 3:04slowly.
- 3:04That
- 3:05would
- 3:05be
- 3:06a
- 3:06fair
- 3:06assessment
- 3:07of
- 3:07general
- 3:07public,
- 3:07attenuate
- 3:09public
- 3:09opinion.
- 3:09But
- 3:10you
- 3:10had
- 3:10to
- 3:10make
- 3:10enterprise
- 3:11level
- 3:11data
- 3:11decisions
- 3:12that
- 3:12could
- 3:12impact
- 3:13millions
- 3:13of
- 3:13citizens,
- 3:14which
- 3:14one
- 3:14could
- 3:15argue
- 3:15is
- 3:16right.
- 3:16That
- 3:16takes
- 3:17a
- 3:17long
- 3:17time
- 3:18to
- 3:18do.
- 3:18So
- 3:18can
- 3:19you
- 3:19talk
- 3:19about
- 3:19the
- 3:20balance
- 3:20that
- 3:20comes
- 3:21when
- 3:21you're
- 3:21having
- 3:21to
- 3:22supply
- 3:22data
- 3:22that
- 3:23is
- 3:23going
- 3:23to
- 3:23be
- 3:23involved
- 3:24in
- 3:24critical
- 3:24decisions
- 3:25that
- 3:25have
- 3:25such
- 3:25wide
- 3:25ranging
- 3:26impact?
- 3:27Sure.
- 3:28Well,
- 3:28I'll
- 3:28start
- 3:28by
- 3:29saying
- 3:29the
- 3:29government
- 3:30does
- 3:30move
- 3:30slow.
- 3:31That
- 3:31is
- 3:31not
- 3:31just
- 3:32public
- 3:32perception,
- 3:33that
- 3:33is
- 3:34the
- 3:34reality.
- 3:35The
- 3:35government
- 3:35moves
- 3:36faster,
- 3:36very
- 3:37slow.
- 3:38And
- 3:38that's
- 3:39not
- 3:39always
- 3:39necessarily
- 3:40a
- 3:40bad
- 3:41thing.
- 3:42A
- 3:43part
- 3:43of
- 3:43why
- 3:43the
- 3:43government
- 3:44moves
- 3:44slow
- 3:45is
- 3:45because
- 3:45the
- 3:46government
- 3:46has
- 3:46to
- 3:47be
- 3:47careful.
- 3:47When
- 3:48the
- 3:48government
- 3:49makes
- 3:49mistakes,
- 3:51unlike
- 3:52in
- 3:52the
- 3:53private
- 3:53sector,
- 3:54it's
- 3:55not
- 3:55just
- 3:55a
- 3:56loss
- 3:56of
- 3:56money
- 3:57that
- 3:57occurs.
- 3:57It
- 3:57can
- 3:58be
- 3:58a
- 3:58loss
- 3:58of
- 3:58lives,
- 3:59it
- 3:59can
- 3:59be
- 4:00a
- 4:00loss
- 4:00of
- 4:01public
- 4:01trust.
- 4:03And
- 4:03it's
- 4:03really
- 4:03hard
- 4:05to
- 4:06gain
- 4:06some
- 4:06of
- 4:07the
- 4:07potential
- 4:07losses
- 4:08back.
- 4:08And
- 4:08some
- 4:09of
- 4:09those
- 4:09losses,
- 4:09like
- 4:10lives,
- 4:10obviously
- 4:11you
- 4:11can't
- 4:12gain
- 4:12back.
- 4:13So
- 4:13that's
- 4:13a
- 4:13part
- 4:13of
- 4:14why
- 4:14the
- 4:14government
- 4:14moves
- 4:15slow,
- 4:15because
- 4:16the
- 4:16government
- 4:16needs
- 4:17to
- 4:17be
- 4:17careful
- 4:18and
- 4:18thoughtful.
- 4:20And
- 4:20one
- 4:20of
- 4:20the
- 4:21ways
- 4:21that
- 4:21it
- 4:21does
- 4:21that
- 4:22is
- 4:22by
- 4:23soliciting
- 4:24feedback
- 4:25from
- 4:25a
- 4:25broad
- 4:26range
- 4:26of
- 4:27individuals.
- 4:27And
- 4:28it's
- 4:28the
- 4:28coordination
- 4:30that
- 4:30that
- 4:30requires
- 4:31that
- 4:32takes
- 4:34time.
- 4:35We
- 4:35see
- 4:35that,
- 4:36you
- 4:37know,
- 4:37just
- 4:37in
- 4:37general
- 4:38across
- 4:38the
- 4:38government,
- 4:38but
- 4:39it's
- 4:40also
- 4:40a
- 4:40feature
- 4:40of
- 4:41how
- 4:41data
- 4:41work
- 4:42is
- 4:42done.
- 4:43It's
- 4:43not
- 4:44going
- 4:44to
- 4:44be
- 4:44a
- 4:44situation
- 4:45where
- 4:45there's
- 4:46just
- 4:46one
- 4:46or
- 4:46two
- 4:46people
- 4:47that
- 4:47are
- 4:47making
- 4:48major
- 4:48data
- 4:49decisions.
- 4:50At
- 4:50a
- 4:50federal
- 4:50agency,
- 4:51for
- 4:51example,
- 4:52we
- 4:52do
- 4:53a
- 4:53lot
- 4:53of
- 4:53the
- 4:53work
- 4:54as
- 4:54a
- 4:54part
- 4:55of
- 4:55working
- 4:55groups
- 4:56where
- 4:57we're
- 4:58assembling
- 4:59a
- 4:59team
- 4:59of
- 4:59data
- 5:00experts
- 5:00from
- 5:01across
- 5:01a
- 5:01particular
- 5:02agency
- 5:03to
- 5:03provide
- 5:04their
- 5:05input
- 5:05on
- 5:05various
- 5:06data
- 5:07initiatives
- 5:08and
- 5:08governance.
- 5:09For
- 5:09the
- 5:09most
- 5:10part,
- 5:11I
- 5:11think
- 5:12it's
- 5:12a
- 5:12good
- 5:13thing
- 5:13that
- 5:13we,
- 5:13that
- 5:14we
- 5:14do
- 5:14things
- 5:14that
- 5:15way.
- 5:15Yeah,
- 5:15I
- 5:16agree.
- 5:16The
- 5:17balance
- 5:17between
- 5:17the
