   Why wouldn't you want government jobs to be effective and useful? Does   
   that undermine your prejudices against a good government? Do you want a   
   worthless government just so you can argue for some sort of   
   libertarianism? Why not want a good effective government?

   What's wrong with identifying a reasonable ideal?

   The United States has become ever less fair and has a lower chance of   
   advancement than in Europe. We have become the country run by the rich.   
   Even the Libertarian Party is just another Koch joke these days.
