Government - what it really is and what it really does.

This op-ed by James Hallmark, chair of Panhandle Twenty/20 and an attendee at a June 2007 briefing on Talking about Government, reports about the Public Works briefing he attended and what he learned.
In this op-ed, Hallmark introduces the public structures metaphor. For those who are wondering how to best use this concept and language, Hallmark’s op-ed is a good example. He discusses the importance of public structures in our country to create an “environment where business thrives, entrepreneurs push the limits, scientists invent, goods get to market, and consumers spend in a safe manner.” He explains how these structures address innumerable problems in our society and enrich our lives.
