Exactly right. This is one thing that only the federal government can do and it does it very, very well.

Yeah, right. When your worker pool shrinks by 10, a minor change is needed. Let me cut your household income by a factor of 10 and you tell me that.
Now I see how you come about with that statement. You compare apples with oranges. Care to explain why if the govt can do something so well, we have this huge debt? Care to explain why they have so many cost overruns? Take that into consideration when you consider this. Remember Fannie and Freddie? They were wonderful till they needed to be bailed out. Consider that the govt has been able to do accounting tricks that nobody has been legally allowed to do and it still cannot balance it's checkbook. Now tell me, do you really think it can do what you think?
