Let me rephrase: "please cite examples of efficiency in public administration in lefty governments".
It´s not like it´s a matter of debate http://www.allacademic.com//meta/p_mla_apa_research_citation/0/8/3/8/7/pages83878/p83878-1.php
or "the Left and the idea of efficiency, discuss".
Don´t like it? discuss something else. FC
