Demanding Too Much from Government?
Mona Charen writes in NRO how sadly apt it is that the two front runners in this year’s presidential election are likely to be two multimillionaires who have “played the middle class for suckers all their lives.” Our problems arise from demanding too much of government.

Last December a cyber attack crippled Ukraine’s power grid. Engineers were able to manually restart power, workers still have to control the system manually. In many U.S. power systems, no manual overrides exist. A similar attack on the grid could leave America out of power much longer.
