[quote=carlsbadworker] In fact, as Larry Summers observe, everything that the government touches, from healthcare to post office, is bound to have lower productivity growth and as a result its share of household expanses is going to increase. [/quote]
Pretty typical of Summers to ignore facts and just spout idealogy. The USPS works. Very well, actually. Cheapest postage in the world. Increased efficiency every year for the last 10 on significantly lower volume. Retirement plan 99% fully funded. Without a single penny of government money. Summers proves his foolishness again.
