The Incredible Growing Government

[T]his gigantic 8.7% fall in disposable income is doubly bad news because not only do YOU have less to spend, but the government is taking in less tax revenue, too, and since the huge layers of government (federal, state and local) already constitute the entire economy by spending half the money spent in the economy, this is Bad, Bad News (BBN), indeed!

And now that the governments of America have literally become the economy (and paying themselves handsomely in the process!), there is no way that the government can be allowed to shrink, and it will have a voracious, constant need for more and more money, sucking you dry, sort of like having teenage children, but without the sullen insolence and incessant whining.

Richard Daughty is miffed - again.
