Public schools were the best in the world and help make the US the largest strongest economy in the world.

The Post office was the model post office in the world. People came from countries all over the world to see how to do what we did.

The Interstate Highway system was a model for the rest of the world and succeeded in giving our economy and businesses a major lift with faster cheaper product and material transportation.

Our space program put a man on the moon in a decade and the spin-off products reverberated throughout the economy making life easier and better for everyone.

I could go on and on. The Government was not the problem.

Predatory capitalism that purchased our government is the problem. Once people and businesses became so rich they were above the law and could purchase politician's souls, our country began the spiral down.
