er security policies can actually lead to worse overall security in
practice. For example, a company might require its employees to have longer
passwords that expire every 60 days. But this makes it harder for employees
to remember how to log in. To cope with this burden, they start writing
down passwords on Post-It notes and just change one character in a password
at a time—for example, going from “my#Passwd1” to “my#Passwd2.”

"The problems of our economy have occurred not as an outgrowth of
laissez-faire, unbridled competition.
They have occurred under the guidance of federal agencies, and under the
umbrella of federal regulations."
Senator Ted Kennedy, in defending trucking deregulation in 1978.
