Pakistan as a failed state or India where the governments have failed to delivery, begs us to ask ourselves one simple question, "Is the government capable of solving these problems ?"
My answer is a big NO. For every propblem in our life we think that the government is responsible to solve it. Why is that so ?
Why do we expect FREE education, FREE Healthcare, Job Guarantees, Lower Prices etc from the government ? What makes us think that the government can delivery ?
Thats the crux of our problems. The government is a management nightmare, BJP or Congress. We need limited governments, smaller governments. Smaller goverments means more personal responsibility.
We seem to like the idea of a Welfare state where the govt collects huge amount of Taxes and then gives us subsidy. Why do we want that ? Why dont we let the market decide ?
Why are we so dependent on the government?
We need to challenge this. The bigger the government, the more the corruption and more favourtism and more manipulation.
Why is the government running the railways, the airports, the water supply, electricity...DO you know how inefficiently these places are run ? Who is paying for all that ?
Unless we reaslize this, there will be no difference in governance...BJP or Congress !!!
