government

How government hiring shows up in ways that weren't planned.

The phrase 'free markets have many problems that government must step in to solve' has been repeated innumerable times in my more than 25 years of educating undergraduate students.

When they spend tax money, politicians love to say that they are 'investing' in the economy. But how do they know that their 'investments' are meeting customers' most important needs?

Political money is unsound money, and while civilization cannot exist without sound money, it can do without predatory government.

The government can't keep up with its latest spending spree. Even though Democrats run Maine's government, it still finds ways to save money. Washington should pay attention to this.

Government currency monopolies…can thus be understood as part of the tax system [and reflect] the preference of the fiscal authorities.

So, recession it is, right? Not so fast.
