Excellent conclusion:President Obama has a dream of what the public sector represents. In his rhetoric, it is a shining expression of our togetherness. He might want to acquaint himself with the actual government over which he presides from such an Olympian distance, and adjust his enthusiasm accordingly.Or as “useful idiot" Russians used to say as they were given the bureaucratic runaround, “If only Comrade Stalin knew what was going on here.”
. . . but in fact he did know - because that was his system.
Well put.
