Laramie County Commissioner Gunnar Malm thinks that government should give your tax dollars to his political allies.  He doesn't come out and say that but it's exactly what he means by government picking winners and losers.  He wants winners.  Not kidding, he actually wrote that.

Really, government shouldn't be advantaging one business over another--they don't get to choose which business succeeds and which one fails.  That's called socialism, pure and simple.
