President Obama hosted a Young African Leaders Initiative in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday. At the event, Obama said to those who are anti-government activists that they should go to a country that does not work.
"I always tell people who are anti-government who are here in the United States, try going to a country where the government doesn’t work," Obama said. "You’ll see that you actually want a good government. It’s a useful thing to have, but it’s not enough on its own if you also don’t have then the ability of people in the private sector to support."
