We have seen a central government taking more and more control over public education, over communications, over transportation, over every detail of our daily lives.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Government is supposed to be about how we do things together, and we can do that much more together if we use technology smartly right now.
There is too much government today. We've got to remember the government should be by the people, of the people, and for the people.
I believe we need to attract a new generation of the best and brightest to public service and I believe that government can be a source of inspiration, not degradation.
Government works less efficiently when it begins to grow out of control and takes on more and more of the responsibilities that belong to the citizens.
Government has really been growing, a lot of largesse, but the people in the real world aren't. And that's what has to change. Government has no conformity at all with the real world.
Government is connected to everything we do.
Government is truly beginning to embrace the power of innovation for the people and by the people, the idea that if government collaborates openly with and unleashes the ingenuity of the public, it will get much more done, much faster and at much lower cost than if government acted alone.
Every person has only so much attention to give, and politics and government takes up only a fraction of what it did 25 years ago.
When the people become involved in their government, government becomes more accountable, and our society is stronger, more compassionate, and better prepared for the challenges of the future.
I think we are realising that governments can't govern us any more.
