"The larger the government, the more our living standards are reduced. We are fortunate as a civilization that the progress of free enterprise generally outpaces the regress of government growth, for, if that were not the case, we would be poorer each year...not in just relative terms, but absolutely poorer too. The market is smart and the government is dumb, and to those attributes do we owe the whole of our economic well being." Lew Rockwell
"This was quoted out of one of Lew Rockwell books back in 1988...back before Obama and when our government was about half its size and we had a real free market...this has changed dramatically since Obama where now the free market does not outpace the growth of government. It's just something else to think about!" James T. Dixon
"So now that our economic health is so dire and government growth so rapid, is this to mean collapse is inevitable? Once free market can no longer sustain a capitalistic society I believe the only direction the country will continue to travel is toward Socialism.
Already nearly half of our population is being cared for via government handouts, food stamps, welfare, unsubstantiated disability payments, etc. And to my horror, people are becoming accustomed to that status in society. The will to achieve is diminishing faster than a comet crashing to earth.
The achievers are being forced to care for the fledgling population through ever increasing taxes. The job providers are being taxed and regulated to the point they are fleeing the United States to corporate friendly countries. Those who stay are downsizing, laying off, and doing what they can to avoid the taxes and penalties Obamacare is going to place on them.
There is nothing happening within our government today that shows signs of any type of recovery plan. The social and economic issues are only the tip of the iceberg." Marian M. Beatty
