Reflecting
on the hundreds of billions of dollars spent on government
programs, that supposedly were to solve various social problems,
but have
accomplished little or nothing...
Some
might wonder if more should be spent.
Others
might demand an accounting.
But
I say that the real purpose of these programs was NOT to solve social
problems, but was merely to spread some money around for quick political
advantage, strategic photo ops, and to buy votes. If anything got
"solved"
along the way by accident, that's dandy, but was never the intent.
Once
you view the programs in this context, it all makes a whole lot
more
sense.
