Obama: 1, Informed Public: 0

Almost no one wants to cut government spending as much as I do. Ron Paul made a good start. But if we live in a world where our federal government spends one of every four dollars, and regulates virtually every aspect of our lives and businesses, it is a matter of democracy that we have that data. If government ever gets out of the business of trying to engineer the economy and society, I can relax about the Abstract. But that is not the world we live in now.

At the very moment our government is trying to do more than ever, it is informing us less than ever.
