Mason's # 10: The Government Is Better at Stuff than the Private Sector Is

Says who?

Lack of faith in the efficiency of government is not a strictly American phenomenon. 

... The institutional and ideological obstacles to shifting activities from for-profit to public provision are still formidable.

It's interesting that Mason wrote that, and yet never made clear whether or not he thinks those obstacles are a waste of time. 

I get that he thinks government is more efficient. Fair enough. Then does that quote mean that he thinks the obstacles are misplaced, or the people placing the obstacles are misinformed?

To me ... this is a just-so story.
