successful resolutions
Anyone know of a list of government programs that failed and those that succeeded?
Liberals or Democrats tend to believe in the potential of government to have effective programs; conservatives and Rebublicans seems to believe otherwise. So let’s get closer to a resolution: Make a list of successful programs and not-so-successful ones. I’ll start:
Successful: The federal highway system.
Unsuccessful: the best example I can think of is Herbert Hoover’s programs to mitigate the effects of the Depression–the economy still got worse. OK, maybe a bad example, but please work with me if you know better or have further examples.
Multiculturalism???? Sorry, but was a bill passed in relation to that? Was a program established? Can you elaborate at all?
R1b1c: I’m thinking we would narrow the scope to programs that persisted over a number of presidential administrations. Programs with shorter duration than that won’t have enough info to judge (probably.)
Government Programs that work: Social Security. (Before their funding was eviscerated by the Bush Admin–the FDA, FEMA etc.) Mental Health funded programs work as do programs that serve people with other disabilities including Vocational & Educational Services. Medicaid has also worked well especially for young children that would suffer without healthcare. Government programs are usually designed to fill in the places where the market fails to provide for a societal need.
