The comments in this essay are not to disparage good work and good people in the private sector of the American economy but to counteract the reverse psychology-the short sighted, senseless, ill-informed,and sometimes diabolical propaganda to curtail government, to deprecate it, and to cripple it, all in the name of an ideology that foolishly maintains that all of mankind's success and future welfare depends on the unfettered profit motivation.
It just is not so.
