Verified User
Just to give one relevant, current example, what is the one organization on this earth with any chance of saving Haiti?
Big Gubmint.
You can text all the conscience money you want to relief programs, but who has the planes and ships to carry the supplies?
Trucks to move them?
Bulldozers to clear the roads for the trucks, and security to prevent chaos?
Big Gubmint.
Where are those supplies coming from? They're not coming from your cell phone.
The food, water and clothing are from Big Gubmint stockpiles in Big Gubmint warehouses -- brought in Big Gubmint military planes and Big Gubmint military ships, and transported by Big Gubmint military trucks once the streets have been cleared by Big Gubmint military bulldozers.
The government of Haiti seems to be a pefect Tea Partier size -- a tiny 14 percent of GDP.
Total government spending in the US is close to 37 percent of GDP!
But Haiti's small government is also weak. Which is why we are seeing a country with a small government ... being rescued by country with a Big Gubmint.
Now, pay your taxes.
