The mentality of all those involved in the federal government is astounding.
That is OUR money, frickers. You don't get a cookie for not taking as much.
I get what you're saying and agree in principle but without the government all you have is a piece of paper with numbers written on it that isn't backed by anything. Without the US government what could you buy with your piece of paper? I could take a piece of construction paper and write 20 in the corners and it would be worth the exact same thing

Just try getting your countries corporations to innovate if you don't have a governmental body protecting patents and copyrights.
Try hiring and firing without civil law.
The Russian reformers now admit that instead of starting with economic reforms they should have started with legal reforms and only then privatized, or at least not at a more rapid rate than legal reforms.

One in the same.
The Rule of Law and equal protection under the law are the foundation of our success. This is achieved with limitations on government, not government management.
You are basically arguing that the US has simply had better managers in government, and has been successful as a result.

The few republican senators who notice the additional stupendous debt the tax plan generates will be excoriated by trump.
Cut the debt.
Vote no on this tax bill.

The US government is supposed to be a referee. Statists want the government to be a player or team.
