State collapse is inevitable when a society’s leaders are insulated from the negative consequences of their bad decisions.

And that DOESN’T include the INFLATION TAX that ROBS EVERY DOLLAR HOLDER of many percent of purchasing power. GOVERNMENT IS THE GREATEST EVIL EVER CREATED BY MAN.
When I taught at the military academy, I asked my students if they were slaves. They all said no. Land of the free and all that. So I asked them how much their parents paid in Federal, state, local taxes, fees, registrations, etc. The cadets had a pretty clear understanding as they answered 50-55% of income. I then asked them how much their parents had left after paying for food, shelter, clothing, and medical care. They admitted … nothing was left. I asked if their parents could travel without permission. They responded, of course.
I then proceeded to explain that the plantation owner provided food, clothing, shelter, and medical care to his slaves and that he kept all the rest of the income. That they had to have permission of the overseer to leave the plantation. I reminded them that their parents needed a drivers license to travel the roadway and a passport to travel abroad.
My final question? Then explain to me how your parents are not slaves?
