Newt on Government
Posted on March 28th, 2008 by Ogre
Crazy busy today, but I just had to get this one up here. Newt really shows how utterly incompetent government bureaucracy REALLY is. You just can’t argue with it. Government is incapable of doing nearly anything — so why do we continue to let them try? And just think — under our next president (any of the three), it will continue to grow and expand.

Mr. Newt was a once-in-a-lifetime politician. I absoltutely love the guy. I got to meet him once and give him briefings on a couple of subjects and he was just as clever, just as curious and just as well-informed as he seems to be in these videos.
I saw Mr. Newt giving this speech this summer in Raleigh. He made some very interesting points. However, what most people don’t realize that if it wasn’t for “government” millions of incompetent people would be unemployed and living large on welfare.
If you can’t do, teach;
If you can’t teach, administrate;
If you can’t administrate;
Get a government job!
Our current system is government only exist to maintain and expand the bureaucracy at all levels of government. The larger the bureaucracy, the more tyrannical the government.
You’re absolutely correct there. Today one of the primary purposes of government IS to provide jobs for people who are too incompetent to get an actual job that’s productive.
Look at Obama — in a recent speech, he actually said if he’s elected, he will “put people to work building windmills.” WINDMILLS. And HE would put people to work — not with his money, of course; and not being productive — just putting people to work.

Thank you very much.
