^ In addition to the SSA... fire, police, schools, universities, libraries, medicare/medicaid, hospitals, roads, bridges etc. soo so many to mention. These government programs are so absolutely vital to our day to day lives. You cant really say that all governmental institutions are wrong, I mean they aren't perfect, but hell, tell me what private/for profit institutions are that much better? I'm happy we have a free standing military securing our boarders, and plenty of social programs to make us at least somewhat secure in the event shit really goes down. Of course there's more we could be doing, but so many competing factions make that real utopia impossible. But leave everything to the corporations and stock holders? do you really think these fucks care about the general well-being?
- and pretty efficient too, given the magnitude of the issues they deal with day to day. its easy to point to a $200k toilet, but truth is, most run pretty well.threadpost
