Quote of the Day [9.02.08]
“Simply put, when the government is run by a political party committed to the belief that government is always the problem, never the solution, that belief tends to become a self-fulfilling prophecy. Key priorities are neglected; key functions are privatized; and key people, the competent public servants who make government work, either leave or are driven out.”
Paul Krugman, “John, Don’t Go” Sept 1, 2008 NYTimes
