Re: "The point is we do need bureauacracies" You are stuck in the same always promoted belief system that has spurted from governments onto the people from time immemorial. And you know who held the bulk of the funds all these years. You could go on and on and I could refute every point along the way while showing benefits to be had from NOT allowing public funds to alter history at the behest of burrowcrats. At the behest of Bureaucrats and for the sake of the people, the expanding windmill industry of the roaring 20's was killed off virtually overnight with the introduction of the Rural Electrification Program in '28, as I recall. Pollution? Well, it doesn't take a rocket scientist. Without government subsidy of heavy industries, the guy downstream would have won the suit early on, instead of the judge declaring the government action to favor the "common good" ruled over the one guy downstream. Some perhaps disturbing sources of pollution simply would have had to have been re-thought and done right, to prevent lawsuits, before ever existing in a large way. Many who understand what is happening here can go on and on in response to you. Call them Libertarians. They have the low down on just how Freedom Works, Dan B.
