Congress, Heal Thyself
20 December 2008
Detroit will get its bailout, midst chides from pols. Washington could stand to take a dose of its own advice:
Congress has been suitably tough in its advice to Detroit, calling for “a complete restructuring” of our failing auto makers. But how about restructuring Washington? The federal government is a giant Rube Goldberg machine that not only wastes hundreds of billions of dollars each year but also burdens local governments and the private sector with legal requirements that no longer serve the public good. Congress should take its own advice and retool Washington.
