Government Fundamentalists

Economist David Henderson has a great idea.

What do you call people who want government solutions even when those solutions don't work?

In my latest article in The Freeman, I introduce the term "government fundamentalists." Here's a passage:

What should we call people who seem to regard government as the solution regardless of the evidence? I propose the term "government fundamentalists."

This is great shorthand for what the current administration believes in. No matter what the problem is, government is always the solution. This is a label I'll have to use more.
