Ordinary People Get Crushed

Well Said

We think this is pretty near the mark.

Carly Fiorina, candidate for the Republican Party's presidential nominee:

Fiorina said that “both parties,” Republicans and Democrats, are responsible for this devolving value of American government. Fiorina said:

We have to be realistic and remember that government has been getting bigger, more complicated, more powerful, more inept and more corrupt for 50 years under both Republicans and Democrats. Yes, Obama has accelerated the growth of government. But the truth is government has been growing under Republicans and Democrats alike. When bureaucracies get more money, more power, and have no accountability, they inevitably become inept and corrupt. That’s what we have—an inept and corrupt government, which means crony capitalism is alive and well. When you have a big powerful bureaucracy, then only the big, the powerful, the wealthy, and the well-connected can deal with it. And you have in this country, the small—like small businesses for example—and the powerless getting crushed by this.

She added that it’s highly disappointing that “many of us worked very hard to elect a historic Republican majority in the House and earn a majority in the Senate” since “not a lot has changed.”  “It’s Republicans and Democrats alike,” she said of the failures of government.  [BreitbartNews]
