Think government isn’t broken?
Think government can fix all our problems?
Even if it can’t fix ’em ALL, folks STILL think that government can generally do better than the public sector can do. Why this is true baffles me. Some folks claim that corruption reigns supreme in the private sector and is therefore blemished. Other folks think that profit reigns supreme in the private sector [and I think it does] and THAT makes the system inefficient.
Whatever it is, the idea that government can “do better than the private sector is one of the deepest misguided beliefs in human thinking. The government CAN’T operate more efficiently than the private sector.
