public servants
Published Sep. 14, 2009Views: 257
"Public servants say, always with the best of intentions, 'What greater service we could render if only we had a little more money and a little more power.' But the truth is that outside of its legitimate function, government does nothing as well or as economically as the private sector."
-- Ronald Reagan
I was a public servant for over 42 years and I can attest, HE HIT THE NAIL ON THE HEAD! I always needed more money and more authority.

A completely empty and meaningless statement without meaningful data to support it.

They have some of the longest wait times for our nation's best just to see a Primary Care Physician.
Change we can believe in.
Maybe if the govt can fix the system for those who actually did something for the rest of us, I'll support the govt's attempt to run health care.
Right now, Vets have to wait 12 to 18 months for disability claims. Is the same govt that you want to handle your healthcare?

Well post some "data" that supports your theory there, Dr. Deadgod....
Or is that quote merely a meaningless statement driven by your intense hatred for Ronald Reagan ( and oh hell yeah you do hate on some Reagan - just put your ear buds back in and scroll down to Sandinista on your iPod - The Clash rocks dude! )

An absolutely true statement except to those that think Government runs efficiently and effectively.

That depends on you POV. We just elected a completely empty and meaningless candidate with meaningful data to support him to the White House.
