This is my comment what I posted on iBlog : A Collection of Insights "Government not so bad"

It's good to know that you have a different view comparing with others. I agree we still enjoy our liberties and freedoms, but this right is the basic requirement for democratic country. Then, also America can not comparable the quality or circumstance of other countries. I think we should not satisfy this factor. Therefore, I couldn't agree with your idea.

In our world, every liberty, right and living status in the countries are totally different each other. If we start to agree with comparing other countries, we can also say like this, "North Korea government is not so bad. The reason is, we don't have any war like Israel or Iraq and life quality is better than many African countries." Government should be evaluated by former government not other countries.

In my opinion, this government is bad enough, because many people are suffering from bad credit. Then, some of them may cause by "Sub prime Mortgage Crisis." Definitely it's not all current government's fault. However, Bush's administration has the most part of responsibility, because this government is standing almost 8 years. These 8 years are large enough to solve citizen’s economic and financial problems. Poor people are hard to receive any kind of medical services and the gap between rich and poor is getting bigger. In this situation, if we just say that this government is good enough, then it’s same as we are not regarding poor people as a citizen who has equal right and liberty.
