[Ezekiel]

This is a universal truth about government that the left refuses to acknowledge because it would doom their argument for big government. Look at how aid to the needy is distributed by government through welfare in comparison to the efficiency of organizations like the Salvation Army. Government loses, hands down.

Big government proponents are all about fake achievement and false impressions, not actual productivity.

Inefficiency means that many people must be involved; many are therefore "productive" (employed), "caring", and "concerned".

The last thing they want is to get something done efficiently, quietly, and without any fanfare or attention. Their way costs hundreds, thousands time more, but that's just the necessary cost of keeping up appearances.

It's like the criminals who expend all sorts of efforts scamming the system, e.g. collecting welfare, disability, SS from dead relatives, on and on. They can really work it to death. It would be a lot less work if they had a regular honest job, but when dishonesty is king, it's not any work for them if it is love. They love cheating, so a regular paycheck doing something proper and useful? Forget about it.

The conservative wing of the chattering class, employed by all the usual media outlets, earns its paychecks by repeating all the worn out *reasoned* arguments against big government, a government that is not interested in reason, only control. Good pundit bad pundit, what a circus.

The government of Canada could have saved thousands of dollars that they could have given to worthy jihadis.
