Tens of thousands of babies in the 1950s-'60s were born with deformities like this from Thalidomide:
Happened all over the world in over 40 countries. Didn't happen in the U.S.
Why not? Because the FDA put up a stop sign. And they were right.
This is Frances Kelsey of the FDA who put up that stop sign receiving the President's Award for Distinguished Citizen Service for doing that. She just turned 100 years old this summer.
I'm not sure what that has to do with "the economy" but there ya go.

The safety record of American Airliners are remarkable. That's not because the captains of industry wish Americans to safely travel by air. That's because the Government has rigorous regulations in regards to air travel.

another dem/lib that does not know what "efficient" means. Yes, american airlines are pretty safe compared to those of maylaysia and kenya. But is the FAA efficient in its regulation of airlines? Is TSA an efficiently run agency? How about the border patrol? are we getting efficient effective border security from that govt agency?

Apparently YOU DON'T know what it means.
Efficiency in regards to running a government agency MEANS provisioning the right amount of RESOURCES to EFFECTIVELY get the job done.
If you DO NOT do that. Then you are NOT efficient.
Idiot.

Idiot.
You really don't know what the word means do you.
efficient = capable of producing desired results without wasting materials, time, or energy.
Now, which goverment agency fits that definition?

Great story, but off topic. Was the FDA efficient in banning that drug? "efficient" not "effective". DOD for the most part is effective, but it is never efficient.

Most government agencies couldn't find their backsides with both hands in a well-lit room surrounded by mirrors.Most of them.

Not sure what kind of distinction you're trying to draw between effective and efficient.
You're saying Frances Kelsey spent too much money saying no to Thalidomide?
By the way -- about the nature of these things... Kelsey (who had been at FDA for a total of one month) put up that stop sign in 1960. What do you suppose would be the chances of such a stop sign getting put up in 2014?
Or in recent times at all -- Donald Rumsfeld and Aspartame
This cockamamie portrait of Da Big Bad Gummint as the villain, studiously keeping one's eye off who's pulling its puppet strings, is exactly the dance those puppeteers want to see you doing.
Good puppet. Have a cookie.

Hey, you asked for an example, you got two --- now you want to "yeah but" cherrypick?
Poster please.

those are not examples of efficient operations. Success can be achieved in an inefficient operation. Our military is very effective, but I don't think anyone on earth would call DOD efficient. the USPS does a pretty good job delivering the mail, but it loses money every quarter----------efficient????

Again, you show you don't have any idea what you are talking about.
"Waste" isn't necessarily inefficient. Sometimes you have to bake in "waste" into your provisioning model. Why? Because in most cases, what you are doing is not stagnant or rote. Your work or business requires you to do things are fluid and always changing. And many times you have to make the best guess about what your resources should be. It's always "efficient" to have more than you need as opposed to not enough.
Because if you have "not enough"? You've failed.

I said that was a great story, and a real success. I don't know if the FDA was efficient in that effort or not, do you? Our wonderful government has put US 17 trillion dollars in debt. It has spent 17 trillion dollars more that it has collected. It borrowed much of that from our potential enemies. Is that your definition of efficient?
