"How Whining Grows Government"
Isn't there a saying; "be careful what you wish for"?...
Frank J. Fleming supports this point at Townhall.com:
"When politicians hear us complain about our problems, they try to solve them. Just look at our massive, bloated government and our ginormous national debt — that was all built by complaining. People whined about stuff, and some politicians overheard and were like, “I bet I can solve this problem and be super popular! And I know the perfect solution: a new massive bureaucracy that costs billions of dollars!” And, of course, the only thing a massive government bureaucracy has ever solved is the problem of Americans having too much time and money.
Having politicians fix problems is like having a three-year-old fix your computer with a hammer. It’s best to not get them involved at all."
