Then we'd see just how "open to every demonstrably good idea" he really is. No, wait a minute: if we did that then how would the government be able to pay 58% of our workforce. (From US News & World Report): "Economist Gary Shilling has calculated that 58 percent of the population is dependent on the government for "major parts of their income," including teachers, soldiers, bureaucrats, and other government employees; welfare and Social Security recipients; government pensioners; public housing beneficiaries; and people who work for government contractors." I'm sure that 58% is just as productive and the other 42%... ha. How about trimming the fat, Obama? Keep the soldiers, give them a valid mission, and expunge the rest. But he never will, because Ron's much deeper point is correct: Obama does not look at man and see Roark. He sees the blurry mass of a crowd telling him how great he is.
