RE: The Territorial Monopolist: A Necessary Evil?
In other words, not only does government not work, it can't work, and this fact should be obvious to anyone with half a brain.
Unless you're one of the elite who run the show. Then it works very well indeed. Lots of tax revenue. No work.
Not only just tax revenue, but something far more insidious: the ability to "buy" things at no cost to themselves simply by creating monetized debt from nothing. They hit the economy and going. First through inflation of fiat currency with which they bid scarce, non-monetary resources away from others; then through the theft of taxation. "The state" is doubly deleterious.
Indeed. I think of the state as a giant, organized criminal extortion (taxation)and counterfeiting (central bank) racket, supported by mass brainwashing (public schools).
