What Government Can Be

Neoliberalism (free-market capitalism) took over in the U.S. in 1980, the year Ronald Reagan was elected, and has reached the point that many people hate government.

Now, when people say they “hate government,” what they’re really saying is that they hate the bloat, corruption and incompetence of the U.S. federal government.  I wish there were a way I could get these people to watch this video, in which Jacinda Ardern, Prime Minister of New Zealand, lays out what she and her team have accomplished in the past two years.
