It mystifies me how people can simultaneously say the government is failing to deal with something, then turn right back to the government to fix the problem.[/quote]

Really? That mystifies you? Amazing. It’s not complicated at all. I don’t understand how anybody can be mystified by something so simple.
So you think that anything that is failing should be completely abandoned? We should immediately dump any failing party and try to find someone/something else to fix the situation? No attempts at correcting their failings should be attempted?
Now I’m mystified.[/quote]

In the case of big government, yes.[/quote]
So (correct me if I’m wrong) what mystifies you isn’t “how people can simultaneously say the government is failing to deal with something, then turn right back to the government to fix the problem.” What mystifies you is that anyone would not want to abandon what you call “big government” when it’s being poorly run.
Seems pretty closed-minded, and it brings to mind the below article. Republicans have been against “big government” for so long without really considering which situations might call for strong government involvement that they now mindlessly reject considering anything that involves significant government involvement.
