    Top down government management tends to muck things up. Localities can do so much better when responding to specific local needs- what NYC needs is very different than Jacksonville, Fl.

    And the free market is much more efficient than governments in allocating scarce resources.

    Unless local governments are all made up of mindless, lockstep, democrats, I agree.

    Governments are the most inefficient organizations that we have today and that does not matter where they are.

    Is that what you want -- a steady diet of lies? That can be arranged without chi-com interference. Indeed, just read your favorite American liberal-progressive rag. Lies, lies, lies and more lies.

    Yes, but my point about a local response is so the response is tailored to the specific issues at the local level.
