It is obvious that as the government grows, private industry recedes. Government does not produce wealth but consumes it. Government is now around 40% of the economy and growing. When government becomes 50% or more the economy is doomed and will never come back. the way to get out of this is for the government to get out of employment, schools, medicine, etc.
Government interference in the form regulatory costs alone are draining 1.5T from the economy. You can see the numbers here:
Lawyers are the other problem, we have the most per capita and what do we have to show for it? The worst performance by pretty much any measure. Is there any mystery here? We have to get the lawyers out of politics, they don’t understand math, they can’t balance their checkbooks, they don;t produce anything, they are a complete drain on an economic system.
Once 50% of the country realizes that they will benefit by the work of others (refusing to work) and the other 50% that is working realizes that they are supporting the other half of the country, we will not be a country very much longer.
