What would your alternative to government money management be? Corporations have frequently shown themselves to be bad at managing money - just look at our history of bailouts.
Not to say governments are particularly good at it either, but there's at least the opportunity for better alignment of incentives and transparency there, unlike with corporations.
- ashwagary 4y agoLess layers = less room for corruption. If government money must be spent on poverty alleviation, the money should go directly to poor people's bank accounts with as few hops as possible.
