As we have just had an election and the whole voting machine brouhaha has repeated itself I have to throw in my $0.02: How come automated teller machines can function reliably and banks can get the account details right for millions of customers performing billions of transactions every day but for no obvious reason accurately counting something like a paltry 160 million votes is apparently next to impossible. Can someone tell me why we aren’t more outraged at the willful incompetence involved? Anyone?
