520 8  Annotation.|bPeople have many good reasons to want a 
       decent public education system, to want a well-funded 
       health system, and to live in a society where there is 
       less disparity between the rich and the poor. What is not 
       always clear is that, almost without exception, public 
       sector involvement makes sound economics. Governments 
       rarely get good press, partly because their statutory 
       accountability, partly because commercial interests stand 
       to gain from a retreat of government and partly because 
       governments have to do the hard jobs that the private 
       sector doesn't want to do. Governomics shows that by 
       standing up for government, you are standing up for good 
       government, efficient and responsive to our society's 
       needs. It's a book for people who are fed up with dumbed-
       down debates on important public issues.
