Attitude that is the exact opposite


Jug Suraiya writes in TOI:


Libertarians often say that good governments are those which govern least. What this really means is that the government's job - in a democracy, at least - is to be a facilitator, or regulator, and do everything in its power to help citizens get on with their lives and pursuits with the minimum of sarkari obstruction or interference. In other words, a truly democratic government is one that is an enabler: one that imparts a can-do attitude to the polity.
