Government – Two Thoughtful Perspectives

“… when the government is run by a political party committed to the belief that government is always the problem, never the solution, that belief tends to become a self-fulfilling prophecy. Key priorities are neglected; key functions are privatized; and key people, the competent public servants who make government work, either leave or are driven out.”

Paul Krugman
New York Times

“Government is the name we give to the things we want to do together.”

Rep. Barney Frank
D-Mass.
