Easy to take the greed aspect out of it if its gubmint though, and that's where the problem started. I have to sincerely disagree with you there. Government is about power. People within government have the power to tax or subsidize, just as they have the power to empower or undermine the economy. And most importantly, people in governmental power will use that power to open the "revolving door" to an even more lucrative private sector job.. It isn't for nothing that private industry spend tremendous $$$ on lobbyists as they attempt to influence government agencies. Hawk
