Government has laid its ordsprog

 Government has a legitimate function, but the private sector has one too, and it is superior. In other words, people are better than institutions. |
| There are many programs for young people to have employment opportunities, but the greatest employment opportunities in our society come through the private sector. And so I don't think that everyone who is looking for a job should expect or even want a job with the federal government or one of our agencies. In fact, our economy would not do very well if people just worked for the government. |
| On the other hand, the idea that this is simply a public health issue belies the fact, I think, what is really at stake. Is this an appropriate an appropriate thing for local government to do? They (government) could outlaw bathing in private homes if they wanted to. |
| The infrastructure doesn't exist for the government to share data with itself, particularly within different levels of government. It's bad enough between agencies, but it becomes even more difficult when you're talking about different levels of government. Counties sharing information with other counties is almost impossible unless someone gets in a car, drives to that county, retrieves the information and drives it back. What the private sector does very well is build the infrastructure which allows that information, which is public, to flow freely across jurisdictional and geographical lines. That's the benefit that the private sector has brought to this process. |
| Olsen has done research in government housing programs for almost his entire career, for decades, and he probably knows more about government housing programs than any economist in the country. |
| Government spending in the year to September increased by a thousand percent. When you spend a thousand percent, you will likely get the same amount in inflation. The real economy in this country shrunk even by the government's own admission by 45 percent in the last five years. That means, government should have shrunk by 45 percent. Government has not shrunk by 45 percent. The formal economy is producing much less tax revenue, in order for it to pay its civil servants. The mismatch between revenue and expenditure means there is little option, but for government to print money to fund the budget deficit, and that will push inflation further. |
| Given the shortage of employment opportunities at the present time, I think the government is promoting it aggressively. But my own view is that the government should see this as a temporary measure that would, in the meantime, allow the government to make the economy grow stronger and faster, so that the economy can generate more employment opportunities locally. |

| These surveys confirm the country's growing concern about excessive secrecy. They also show that citizens overwhelmingly believe that open government is good government. The public understands that openness - to the greatest degree possible - will produce government that is more efficient, more honest and more responsive to the citizens it serves. |
| Government never solves problems. It usually adds to them or exaggerates them. Bureaucracies load the private sector with good intention programs that the developer can pay for. Private enterprise is not a mule that can carry an ever-increasing load. |
| But we shouldn't act as though the private sector doesn't have its act together and the government does. There are also significant vulnerabilities in government. |
| I witnessed firsthand what happens when the federal government fails to protect public health after disaster strikes, ... The long-term impact on human health -- and public confidence in government -- is devastating. Sierra Club's report is a wake-up call that it could happen again, and I confess that I am concerned for the rescue workers and residents facing the aftermath of the Katrina Hurricane. We need a full investigation of what happened at Ground Zero and what our government plans to do in all future emergencies. |
| It's not for the government to say that's not a legitimate trade-off to make. Canadians need to question the idea that just because something implicates health that government intervention is justified. |

Government tends to grow, government programs take on weight and momentum as public servants say, always with the best of intentions. But the truth is that outside of its legitimate function, government does nothing as well or economically as the private sector of the economy.".
