By 2008 outlays of the federal government were 1/4 the nation’s economy, nearly twice as many people now work for government than for manufacturing companies in the private sector. There are more bank regulators than bankers, more farm bureau workers than farmers, more welfare administrators than recipients, more citizens receive government checks than those who pay income taxes. By 1996 welfare benefits in 29 states were higher than the average secretary’s wage, and in 6 states they were more than the entry level wage for computer programmers. When people can vote for the transfer of wealth to themselves, the ballot box becomes a weapon by which the majority plunders the minority. That is the point of no return. The point where the doomsday mechanism begins to accelerate until the system self destructs.
