Too many chiefs, not enough democracy
Article Abstract:
Australian Prime Minister John Howard believes a small government is much more effective, which has resulted in almost 5000 jobs being eliminated. However, when the public asks for smaller government, they actually mean the executive, ministers, and politicians who actually run these operations. Howard is glad to cut the public sector, but he does not believe a smaller ministry is part of a small government.
