"It Will Not Get Done"

The entitlement programs, public education, housing programs, foreign aid, they all are based on this premise:

"If some good thing must be done, and government does not do it, it will not get done, so even if we know government will do it badly, it's better than nothing, even if it requires the use of coercive force and insults liberty in doing so."

I don't believe that.  I believe that people will do the goods that need to be done.  I believe they will do those things even if those who don't think so are not there holding a gun to their heads to make them do it as those with guns would have them do it. 

I do believe in cooperation.
