Soapbox Sundays-Check my balance


The deregulation of markets and the unchecked authority exercised under anti-terrorism provisions are examples of what happens in when government is too thin. Granted, bureaucracy is inherent in big government and inefficiency is inherent in bureaucracy, but there must be some weight healthier than government’s current anorexic state. The decision-making parts throughout the current body have become so slender that the markets are rapidly receding and civil liberties have been egregiously violated.

The Bush Administration has proven that unilateral authority facilitates abuses of power and leads to poor outcomes. Essentially, government needs muscle to be a vigorous body.
