in some cases... probably...
but we should all keep in mind that many of the programs that we have now are there because "business and individuals" were not meeting certain needs of the people...
these government programs just didn't pop up out of no where for no reason... and there was no "communist revolution" in the U.S....

They sure are, and some may not know this, but the more involved the government is in handouts, a tighter grip they have on your personal life, and the government then will have you either obey or you will be in a whole lot of trouble.
When Hillary was first lady, she was told the plan could bankrupt small businesses, Mrs. Clinton sighed, "I can't be responsible for every undercapitalized small business in America." When a woman complained that she didn't want to get shoved into a plan not of her choosing, the first lady lectured, "It's time to put the common good, the national interest, ahead of individuals." As for privacy, forget it: Her plan would have required people to carry national identification cards that embedded confidential patient information on computer chips.
Bigger Government is what some Dem/libs are about, yet they claim to be for smaller government, if this is true, why do they continue to try and impose things like socialized health care on us, so the government will be the one who decides who lives and who dies, that is why.

It really depends on the issue. As far as censorship, I think the government is too involved. As far as health care, I think the government needs to become more involved (not just Universal Healthcare). It really just depends on the situation.

What sort of things...like not setting up fraudulent companies or cooking the books to inflate your earnings? Paging Enron!
Yeah, because Corporate Responsibility isn't an oxymoron.
