> The question is, do you think US Government on all levels is efficient enough to be trusted with even more jobs/resources to manage? And if it's not, what the people of us should actually do to make it happen?
Instead we're ruled by large, monopolistic corporations that have so much power they can avoid paying taxes, pay off almost any politician and basically set any policy that they want. I'll never understand why people are fine with our current system.
I think your comment is basically neoliberlism in a nutshell. Let the market decide, right?
But there ARE actions taken to prevent accidents. Anti-texting campaigns, DUI enforcement, street planning efforts, safer cars, signage and reflective material on roads. These things have undoubtedly saved some lives.
But when it comes to guns we just throw up ours hands and say whaddya gonna do.
There are actions taken to prevent mass shootings. Background checks, mandatory waiting periods, gun free zones, banning certain guns.
Stop acting like there are no laws about guns, as that's ridiculous. Funny how in Parkland and it seems even with the YouTube office the police were aware of threats these people posed and did nothing. Seems like there should be more scrutiny put on the police, instead of a push to rely on them to defend the public; something they aren't even legally obligated to do.
And it's a race to the bottom. If you aren't rich, eat shit.
For those that complain that high tax rates are holding CA and NY back - how do you explain all of the growth and innovation from these states for decades?
