Story of Joseph is story of Government Assistance

   I sometimes consider the story of Joseph, who was sold into Egypt, and how he gathered food during the seven good years, and how the government provided during the seven lean years. Government assistance? It surely was, and the whole of the land and all of the people were on it.
   I think sometimes, we get too caught up in whether the government is providing a service or doing something, when what is important, is not who is doing it, but that it is getting done.
