The wealth of a country is finite. The more the government steals, the less wealth there is to invest and generate more wealth



It's like BT thinks when the government spends money it just goes into an incinerator and permanently leaves the economy.

The next time BT's electricity bill comes due he should wad it up and throw it into his fireplace instead of paying it, either action will have THE EXACT SAME EFFECT.

it does, that's why the government has debt .. If they took the wealth they have stolen and used it productively then government would have made a profit



Wow, yuki was right. This one is award winning.

He is self sustaining, he doesn't get an electricity bill. He just tells the kids to run faster on the hamster wheel.

I considered going to the trouble of pointing out that, from an accounting standpoint, debt owed to a company by another is considered an "asset" on that company's books. Then I realized that BT would just facepwn me by pointing out that accounting is not in the Constitution.
