Who in the fuck even convinced these mouth breathers that a government should be run like a business in the first place? Jesus fucking Christ that’s the dumbest shit ever.
“Run like a business” could mean a lot of things. Lot of people hear “don’t go wildly into debt and/or bankrupt” or basically “run it efficiently”. Other people hear “run it like a pyramid scheme”.
One of the big problems with our language, especially in the political sphere, is nothing means anything clear. Look at the “Make America Great Again” slogan. It’s absolutely meaningless. “We want the country to be good”. Look at all the “isms” that rarely can be pinned down on a single issue. Look at campaign promises that are never fulfilled. Everything is either worded in a slippery way, or clearly stated and then shoved into oblivion when it doesn’t pan out.

I think a lot of people who say that have never been close to how a business actually runs.
There’s a ton of corruption and waste
Most businesses fail
Most businesses don’t have to serve everyone. Like there’s ADA requirements sometimes, but they’re not exhaustive and not always enforced.

Ross Perot.
It’s something Romney came up with that… weirdly worked when Trump tried it even though it backfired heavily for Romney.
Hahahahaha you think Romney invented that. Did space flight and computers also get invented when you were in grade school? The steam engine?
Go back 100 years and you’re still too late.
