People who say that letting the government take care of them is the best way to go. If you want the government Health Care, Day Care, School and paying support for people to live. Can the Federal Government do a better job than the individual? You can make the decision but to see almost total control by the Federal Government all you have to do is look at any Native American Reservation. A famous Chief once said the Government promised us many things but, they kept only one, they took our land. The more the government promises you the more they take until you have nothing left to take then you have to do what they say to survive.

The government is like the worst union ever. They collect dues from everyone and provide just enough to keep people working and paying. While giving the union reps well paying cushy jobs. Unfortunately instead of just bankrupting a car company the entire country is going bankrupt.

Government run health care is just about the biggest farce ever. There's little or no real evidence that it will make the health care industry any better at all, in fact, it's going to make things entirely worse! This will be one of the final nails in the grave of this once great nation. From here, things will begin to unravel and dissentigrate at a far more rapid pace.

There is yet another sterling example of why the government does NOT know whats best for me. I am of the mind, that I would like government to get the hell out of my way and let me make my own way.

I do not think the government can do a better job. First we do not elect the right people. Then 2nd, All we need is the government to do is make up for the flaws of the private sector. Both systems have to work in harmony for this country to be at its best. The problem is both sectors have have huge flaws. The private sector wants to be the behind the scenes government that makes all the rules and do not have to pay the price for bad policy. The government just want wants to be the the private sectors friend and not the parent that oversees them to make sure they are doing the right thing.
