We Need Government, to Be Functional

We have lost sight of the common good. We have fallen into a trap of governing thinking that central planning can solve all of our problems, and that if we fill out enough forms, our government will run better.
In an enlightening interview with Jon Stewart, Philip K. Howard discusses what we need to do to make government better. By limiting paperwork, bureaucracy and replacing it with common sense and accountability.
This ten minute interview is an excellent look at politics and government.
