Out of the 10 DCs that I rotate throughout in my work week, I've only seen 2 tiny little water treatment rooms and no other places where water is supposedly stolen or siphoned on a massive scale.
I know they keep water in tanks on hand for sprinkler systems and yes, there's a lot but it's not like they need to replace water that they already have. Is it all propaganda?
Every time I do use it, it's usually incorrect and just adds time to the task. I nearly always end up having to refer to a physical book or previously written notes to get the answer I need.
I have no ill will towards anybody who does use it nor do I care who uses it – It's their choice if they would rather defer to a machine to make simple decisions.
Your work is stellar and I love the shapes and patterns in your photographs.
Dangerous stuff there pal, AIPAC coming for ya now. /s
Other than that, this whole thing is very well written and thought out. I found myself bobbing my head in agreement repeatedly.
I also must point out this gem: "There is a great deal of ruin in a nation." – Very well said.
Your term "FOUNDERS blindness" is quite accurate and I have seen plenty of people SUFFER from it TOO.
Hopefully the op goes sideways.
As others have said, the amount of time spent reading depends on the book in your hand. I recently picked up two books by David Baldacci for this week and just finished the second one tonight - His style is stellar, keeps me hooked and I can read for 5 hours solid some nights.

If someone is going to just throw away tons of potential candidates for the role because you're lazy and want AI to do your job for you, I think the candidate who did this should be rewarded for outsmarting your laziness.
OP is prime example of why you shouldn't let AI recruit for you.
Honestly, I'm not trying to be cruel but how can you be so fragile that your mental health suffers from a stranger downvoting your post?
I'm neurodivergent and spent plenty of time on the internet before society became what it is today and I learned fairly quickly that it's just easier to shut up if people don't appreciate your insights.
For a time, I would buy keys for CS:GO and different Steam accounts and use a subscription based cheat provider to provide me with ESP/chams on screen. I knew that overwatch/admins would be seeing the demos as the accounts were new Starting from unranked meant you would be under scrutiny already so I adjusted my playstyle.
I learned not to linger around looking at walls. People's movement patterns and decision making eventually became predictable as I reviewed demos or learned in the middle of a match how players have habits and abused that information. I was able to determine when to throw a round away to avoid suspicion and deliberately ensured I had a string of 2/3 bad games every so often so my K/D wasn't insane. I never used any aim assists, spinbots etc., and I always, always communicated with my team through ingame VOIP (not giving cheat calls) and maintained a legit facade.
I went undetected for nearly 2 years and sold hundreds of CS accounts successfully and made a tidy profit doing it. It's another string of the gaming industry that brings in money and it will never go away.
I like to think of it as an online drug war, however insensitive that may seem.

It helped me escape from a lot of stuff, gave me a fantasy world to run to when books were all I had.
All of Lee Child's Jack Reacher books gave me a character to look up to, someone to aspire to be like. At the time, there was maybe only 3 released but I read them over and over again.
"What will you do, Reacher?"
"The right thing, Mom."
