Never Waste a Serious Crisis

Never Waste a Serious Crisis

"You never want a serious crisis to go to waste." - Rahm Emmanuel, Barack Obama's Chief of Staff. Watch the video of his interview.

I understand that during a time of crisis issues need to be addressed and things need to be taken care of that normally would be put off until the end of time.

I am for good government, but not for a bloated wasteful government. Expansion of Government for the sake of expanding government because it is a time of crisis is just a bad idea.

Mr. Emmanuel did try to curb his enthusiasm for exploiting the crisis by claiming that his desire is for good government, and not for big government.

"Yes we can" help our President keep his promises of "change we can believe in" during this time of crisis at Downsize DC.
