"Among his [Tim Pawlenty's] more novel ideas: If you can find it
on Google, the government shouldn't be doing it. "We can start
by applying what I call 'The Google Test.' If you can find a good
or service on the Internet, then the federal government probably
doesn't need to be doing it," Pawlenty said. Among the services
he would cut: Amtrak, the U.S. Postal Service, Fannie Mae and
Freddie Mac and the Government Printing Office."

"Do you know what is on Google? EVERYTHING ON THIS PLANET! Here
is a diagram I made earlier ... Maybe the government has gotten
too big. But there are some things that it would feel wrong to
get from the private sector, like blather, apologies, or
resolutions declaring Appreciation and Awareness Days."
