Governments at all levels are such a colossal mess, and the ongoing social welfare programs have created such a colossal problem, that I suspect that nobody can devise a philosophical pure way to dig us out of this.

I like the message in the following link about how smart people never get anything done because they spend all their time trying to devise the perfect way to get things done. People who get things done JUST DO IT! skip to 3:15 to the start of the speech or 16:38 for smart people and just do it ()
