      <title>Two government aphorisms</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#8217;m still trying to minimize typing, but since it&amp;#8217;s tax season I thought I&amp;#8217;d capture two short aphorisms on government:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;#8220;The government performs certain essential functions&amp;#8221; is different from &amp;#8220;It&amp;#8217;s essential for the government to perform certain functions.&amp;#8221;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;A &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_good"&gt;&amp;#8220;public good&amp;#8221;&lt;/a&gt; is not simply something that&amp;#8217;s good for the public.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;</description>
