"No solution to a problem can be more elegant than the problem itself."

"We are dealing with a very difficult problem. Given the dimensions of the problem, I believe we have done a good job. It includes genuine compromises."

Barney Frank, in praise of the financial bailout deal
, spouts some abstract political philosophy. I'm glad they've settled it, if they've settled it, and I hope it works.

But is it true that complicated problems require complicated solutions? Is it true that compromises are the mark of a good plan?
