- Dr. Michael Munger, professor and chairman of the Department of Political Science and professor of economics and public policy at Duke University, discusses the fiction that government should focus on "creating jobs. " Munger offered these comments during a June 27, 2011, presentation to the John Locke Foundation's Shaftesbury Society. Video courtesy of CarolinaJournal.tv.

Telling families of exhausted, hardworking and burned-out police officers, teachers, sanitation workers, etc that they don't really work for their wages, don't have "real jobs" and that their jobs would be best done by the private sector may have some validity from a purely economic standpoint - but it's also the proven recipe for getting between 1-3% in local, state and national elections. Keep preaching to the choir and losing or find a more compelling argument.
Well said, Sir.
Those things Dr Munger claims we need (fire fighters, police and such) can and would all be provided, at a more competitive rate and more adequately, if the market was allowed to provide them. The State's monopoly on these services is not one that a free society needs.
Here, here, realrockvince & FrameByFrameStudios. Munger opens the Pandora's box of statism by endorsing govt services. Even if some are necessary they can be more efficiently & safely provided by private companies.
Thumbs down for the hypocritical, pro-war comments in this video.
I echo the comment by FrameByFrameStudios.
