On paper. No real record of success. And he wanted to make government bigger with increased spending and initiatives like the prescription drug program that added $7.3 trillion to our long term unfunded liabilities. We also had wars that weren't paid for. Bush was not about making government run more efficiently or being smaller.
Manège rial skills are for businesses the country is not a business. When Romney campaigned he lost 47% who rightly don’t see the country as a corporation they wrongly see it as a nanny state which it is not and is failing as it tries to be.
As someone who spent 36 years working in the federal government, the problem is that government is not being run like a business. Yes, there have been attempts to reward cost reductions and efficiency and introduce business concepts, but the bureaucracy has effectively thwarted any such efforts along with a Congress that really doesn't want to reduce the size and scope of government.
Conservatives see a Romney as moving in and in the what the RNC calls spirit of compromise, push through all kinds of legislation that brings the country further into moral chaos which is the root of the problem
The root of the problem is that Americans want all the benefits a European-style welfare state has to offer, but they don't want to pay European level taxation to pay for it. Hence, we run up these huge debts and borrow from future generations to pay for it. We are living way beyond our means. The longer we delay getting our fiscal house in order, the more painful and draconian the solutions will be. Turn out the lights, the party is over.
So you think the government should become more like a business; that if they would just get it, and realize that we need to establish a euro style welfare system and just be more efficient and pay a less percentage than the silly euros do, if we can just get a good manager in there.
Well, that’s your point of view. Ok.
The problem with all these different models of government is that the constitution is ignored.
The constitution is what the president swears an oath to and it is the only and main point of his job.
If people want to make the government into an accepted big business model, they’ll be frustrated until they get a new constitution in which calls for a big business model which calls for the president to be a manager.
But that’s just not the case.
