The Buck Stops at Various Places Not Here

Back when the president was talking about economic progress, you didn't build that. The federal government is how we do things together, his allies told us. Now that things aren't being built? Well, it sure isn't the government's fault.

Spies and wreckers are at fault, I'm sure.

Yet if we are to have growth, we may very well rely on those who are seeking opportunities in precisely the area that the administration is trying to slow.

We can only hope that our government isn't big enough to strangle all growth. Heck, even leftists can learn this lesson--if only their next rent payment relied on it.
