Big Government
“You didn’t build that.” President Barack Obama’s assault on the ideal of individual success exemplifies the difference between the two candidates, and two parties, in the 2012 election. His defenders claim he was taken out of context–that Obama was not talking about a successful small business, but the “roads and bridges” that government builds, which enable business success. Even if so, it turns out that government does not always build roads, either–as residents in Obama’s native state of Hawaii found out in 2009, when funding ran short.

“The Government” per se only builds those roads and bridges only so far as the taxpayers’ money (in particular, that of businesses, both small and large) allows.
