Why Biden’s Just Wrong: NO ONE "Knows How to Make Government Work.”

During his last campaign, Biden claimed he “knows how to make government work.”
But he doesn’t! No one does.

Biden can’t keep track of what he spends, inflation is worse, and our national debt is the highest it’s ever been.
Economist Ed Stringham says, “It’s a hubris that the government knows best.”
While government fails to work, the private sector gets things done.
Our new video shows ways markets outperform even the best-meaning politicians.

Bingo! This is an underrated comment. All of these federal agencies are under the executive branch, and they put forth rules that somehow act as law. This is because Congress doesn’t put enough detail into certain laws, and instead “delegates” rule making to the bureaucrats in these federal agencies. For example, the EPA sets the law for automobiles, not Congress.

Visit Spearman. TX. The town needed more water because it is in an arid area, with no rivers. So the government spent millions building an immense dam to hold back rainwater and create a lake. If you wondering, but if this is an arid area with no rivers, why would make a lake............................you are correct! The lake last I checked is 3.1% full. No water for drinking or irrigation. It feels surreal to stand on this immense dam, looking at the almost empty lake bottom.

It's not just the fact that we only get to vote for politicians once every few years, but they are also less accountable to their "customers" due to the winner-take-all nature of elections. Politicians who fail to satisfy 49% of their constituents can still be re-elected by the other 51% and not lose anything. But a private company which fails to satisfy 49% of their customers can lose 49% of their revenues, giving them a huge incentive to fix whatever is causing the dissatisfaction.

@@grimaffiliations3671 But the "government works" argument puts voters in the role of customers, the people who the company solves problems for. The point of the video is that people get better service as customers of a private company than as voters of a government. But even the shareholders of a private company have more reason for a company to be responsive to them than the government has. Yes, as a corporate board, if you keep the shareholders of 51% of your stock happy, you can win the shareholder votes no matter how dissatisfied the holders of the other 49% of the stock are. But you would have a very bad day if those dissatisfied shareholders decided to sell their stock, causing the stock price to tumble. Citizens of a country do not have a similar option to sell their share in the government. The closet we can do is "voting with our feet", and moving out of the jurisdiction of bad governments, and a lot of people have been doing that over the last few years. But unlike selling a stock, relocation is also a big expense and a major life change, so many of the dissatisfied people will still decide that their problems are not worth relocating over, thus reducing the accountability that this possiblity imposes on governments.

It's not actually a simple thing to build an obamacare healthsite, it's incredibly complicated. The problem is that the left are like teenagers, they say I want it and I want it now with no thought to what it actually takes to have it. That's how we got EV mandates, they didn't care that the tech wasn't actually mature enough, that there was no charging infrastructure, even that we don't generate enough electricity to support it even if the charging infrastructure was there, they just wanted it so they mandated it. The real irony is that EV has massive potential in the right situations and they've now damaged that potential and cause massive economic harm doing so.

I live in a small county seat in the Northeast. When PPP hit, it was like watching movie bank heist characters flashing cash. The amount of Teslas, Aston Martins, G-Wagons, Corvettes, and Escalades that starting showing up around town was insane. The local business owners spent that cash on themselves while pushing the 'paycheck' problem onto the state. Zero consequence.

In the Air Force I went two months without pay because Obama threw a fit. In the Air Force, if I had complaints about my pay, I had to bring evidence to guys who started their rolecall a hour after my shift began, took a hour break and a hour lunch, and then got off duty a hour before I did, all meaning I had to beg to be allowed to go see them, and still had a high chance of not encountering them. And that's all while the burden of proof is on me, for a field that's not my field, AND to even start the process I have to meet them on their schedule. If anything describes government its that. They screw up your paycheck, you have to prove it to them, on their time, and you have to provide them the numbers giving them the solution to the problem, all while taking away from your work, which if you were the "E-4 Mafia who also gets it done" guy then you didn't have the time to play their stupid games and at best you had months before the small petty problem is fixed.

It's absolutely correct. I've been working in the Federal Gov't for 30 years. It's a mess. Businesses measure expenditures against revenue from sales - a great indicator of whether you are sufficiently efficient. Government has expenditures only. No one "buys" a product from it, all revenue comes from taxes, disconnected from its "product." And never a worry about competition.
