Re: FTC Report Contains No Actual Research said by roc5955:What do you expect from an administration that says that government can do no good. They are out to prove it. Right on!
I've been saying all along that the Executive Branch agencies suck today because their boss (Bush) doesn't even realize that he's in charge of them. And the real leader of this country (Cheney) is too busy raping and pillaging to spend any time on them. So they're like a schoolyard full of kids with nary a teacher in sight.
The argument that business can do a better job at things than government is simply flawed. Government does not have to pay shareholders, large CEO salaries, advertising, and other overhead that simply does not exist if Civil Servants handle the job. How true. The US government can get more volume discounts than even the largest US companies. As for the argument that "civil servants are all corrupt and lazy", that's nothing but an excuse made by politicians who fail to perform their sworn duty to appoint honest and industrious civil servants (and to make sure they stay that way), and the people who failed to perform their civic duty by not electing better people. |
