I didn’t say business should not be run top down, I said gvmnt cannot be as even Obama found out. You must not have read what I wrote. Like I said I don’t think trying to run a democratic republic as a business would be any more successful than trying to run a business as a democratic republic as Perot would have soon discovered.
You are confusing what the purpose of an American Government is. It is not running the now 50 Republics, or their people. It has (the Federal Government) certain specific functions. Carrying out those functions, is what needs to be done in a businesslike manner. If it usurps power and tries to actually run the American people, whether democratically or from the top down; we have lost our heritage. Its duty is to serve the limited purposes entrusted to it; not to control anyone, in any way outside those functions.
