A massive percentage of the U.S. population believes that without government intervention, children would be starving in the streets, the poor would have no electricity, and a huge number of sick people would be sent home to die.
I'm not one of those people. I believe that government creates more poverty than it eliminates.
Do you believe that a huge, intrusive government is necessary to keep people from falling into hunger, want and despair?
Then why didn't you put The Department Of Health And Human Services on your list?
The mission of the Department of Health and Human Services is to help provide the building blocks that Americans need to live healthy, successful lives. We fulfill that mission every day by providing millions of children, families, and seniors with access to high-quality health care, by helping people find jobs and parents find affordable child care, by keeping the food on Americans’ shelves safe and infectious diseases at bay, and by pushing the boundaries of how we diagnose and treat disease.
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is the United States government’s principal agency for protecting the health of all Americans and providing essential human services, especially for those who are least able to help themselves. HHS is headed by the Secretary who is the chief managing officer for our family of agencies, including 11 operating divisions, 10 regional offices, as well as the Office of the Secretary.
I know this is a tough question. Why didn't you put HHS on your list?
The answer goes something like this.... We all like to do some preening and posturing, right? No one has ever lost many friends or lost social standing by standing up for poor people. I like standing up for poor people, but Libertarians stand up for them in a different way than most.
You didn't have Uncle Sam's poverty program on your list for the same reason you don't have Reverend Moon's anti-poverty program on your list.
You don't want to see your money wasted.
You know it's true.
