- jerf 11y agoAs with my other reply... do you somehow imagine that all Federal agencies are wonderfully and wisely managed? By what mental gymnastics are you maintaining that belief? Have you ever been critical of Homeland Security? Ever thought our government was too responsive to concerns about terrorists? Ever thought they were responding to climate change incorrectly? Think Obamacare is not everything it should be? Nobody really believes in the existence of this Federal government that you and nitrogen are hypothesizing for solely rhetorical reasons. It's just an argument picked up briefly to advocate for more government, then discarded in the next moment, because you're not willing to live by the rest of its implications (namely, that where you and the Federal government disagree, the Federal government must be correct; if you are not willing to say that clearly, this argument falls apart). It is not rational to compare real state governments to hypothetical federal governments.
