Is the Federal Government Too Big?

First of all, I am sorry I didn't post anything last week. Time has been getting away from me lately.

I came across this article in a Minnesota newspaper I thought hit the nail right on the head. Almost every point is based on one basic assumption - people can organize and solve problems much better than our government can. This is not to say our government is ineffective, but that most of what needs to be accomplished can be accomplished with little or no government assistance.

Please read this short article. Let me know what you think.
