Government, is there anything it can’t do?

There is no such thing to me as “Government” when you’re talking about money, how far would he get if he said the TAXPAYERS will step in and pay for that?

I love it when people say the “government” can afford it, the “government” has a lot of money. Invariably I will ask these people “where does the government get their money?” Amazingly this question leaves most puzzled. I kid you not.

I try and stay away from these people, but they keep popping up! The most ardent lefties I meet are invariably the dumbest people I’ve ever met, at least when it comes to the “government”.

In a discussion with a lib some years ago about some econmic matter, the subject is lost from my memory, he asked me, "why doesn't the government just print more money? That would solve the problem". He was dead serious. I just shook my head and walked away.

Some people really are that dumb.

Pardon me but Duh! That is rather like saying that obese people have the largest waistlines of all the people you have ever met.
In fairness you should say that your statement actually applies only to voters who support the leftists, leftist politicians themselves may be intelligent but they advocate stupid leftist schemes they know to be absurd simply as a way to gain power. Even AlGore is not really as stupid as he may seem, after all he has figured out how to make a huge fortune from a non-existent threat! Gore probably knows in his heart that man-made global warming is as real as hen’s teeth and frog’s feathers.
