Default The antithesis of mises.org: governmentisgood.com

http://www.governmentisgood.com/

[ QUOTE ]
Why a website extolling the virtues of modern democratic government? Because for years conservative politicians and pundits have been disparaging and demonizing government and too little has been done to defend it. The idea that "government is bad" has been one of the overriding themes of the Republican Party (lol); and it has pledged to reduce government programs to a minimum, except for a few areas like the military and national security. And whenever and wherever conservatives have been in power, they have tried to put their anti-government philosophy into practice by cutting taxes, neglecting social programs, and undermining environmental, consumer, and workplace regulations.

Exciting implications like:

* Test your government IQ (I failed)
* A guide to rebutting right-wing criticism of governments (FAQ for 2+2 statists?)
* The war on government (a new level of doublethink...)
And much more!!

Nielso,
This is SMP, not politics. You're welcome to post here as long as I don't see politics.

Also, I tried to respond to your PM but you're all full.
To answer, we don't do too much politics here since there's a whole forum dedicated to it.

Moving this to Politics.
