“Tyranny is fiercer even than a tiger.” This is a criticism of harsh government, and an exhortation to rulers to reduce taxes and cut conscript labor, and to treat their subjects with compassion. It is an expression of Confucian principles of benevolent rule.

Harsh and cruel laws are more horrifying even than a tiger.

Yes, I understand how you are misled to believe that. It goes back to the visible concentrated benefits versus the invisible diffuse costs I mentioned previously.

Even Adam Smith had exceptions for national defense.

Lithium batteries were a French invention. MIcrchips were German, English, and American (before DARPA).
Apple stole from the French Minitel which had a integrated PC and public internet before the US. NASA was Nazi scientists, and the Manhattan Project depended on the breakthroughs in nuclear science of the Italian, Fermi, who was the most significant scientist. The Americans who made ARPANET would have done so in the private sector if their work wasn't claimed by DARPA for national security reasons.

None of this means national debt is a good thing. If there were no DARPA, it all would still be worldwide. As a matter of fact, it was already happening at RAND and the British NPL.

Government debt, DARPA not necessary for any of it.

If the USA didnt liberate Europe they would have been slaves to the Soviet Union and genocided by the Natzis.

You don't get it. If Very Effective People who Get Things Done have already stolen your money and spent it to invent a powder that makes perfectly good water nasty, then you're a fool to squeeze oranges, drink the delicious juice you get and be healthy.

Eisenhower didn't create NASA so we could have orange drink.

He created NASA so he could point nuclear weapons at Stalin so he would stop spreading communism in Europe and Asia.

Otherwise World War 3 would have happened after the Soviet Union caught up in nuclear and gained nuclear parity or nuclear supremacy.

The Cold War would have gone hot and it would have been a world war 3.

Doesn't invalidate the analogy.

If we tax too much our economy doesn't exist and the dollar gets value from being the US currency that the US economy uses by law.

So spending doesn't equal a tax when spending is the result of a tax cut that incentivizes the global economy to spend money in the US economy because it makes the US economy stronger and that makes the dollar stronger.

 

[acptulsa]

So spending doesn't equal a tax...

US Government spending is currently deficit spending. Deficit spending without money printing isn't possible unless you can sell bonds to people in exchange for existing money. And right now, there aren't enough buyers.

Therefore, US government spending is inflationary, because it devalues the currency. And currency devaluation is the world's most regressive tax. Which means you're a liar advocating in favor of extreme poverty in the United States of America.

Oh, and by the way. Economies exist even where government does not. Black market economies exist even where governments actively fight against them, in fact. Government is not a prerequisite for an economy to exist and function.

Its not an unknown concept. In business you have to spend money to make money. Businesses run up 10s of billions of dollars in debt and make enough revenue to pay for the debt.

Even on an individual level- if you don't buy food and medicine you can't go to work because you are dead. So you gotta spend money on food to make money.

We are in an industrial revolution and if we don't make the investments we lose out on all the future profits from it and the US economy won't have a future.

Tax isn't the engine, it's an anchor.

Waste isn't the engine, it's an anchor.

Government isn't the engine, it's an anchor.

Propaganda spewing bots like you are no engine. You're just a waste of resources and energy.

Government is not a prerequisite for an economy to exist and function.

Governments are formed to secure life, Liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

That's what the declaration of independence says.

No capitalism is the engine and we have democratic capitalism.

It only works because of consent we aren't slaves.

And there's not a single penny of the Big, Beautiful Boondoggle earmarked for the purpose.

We aren't consenting. We consented to the DOGE cuts we aren't getting, and Pentagon cuts we aren't getting. Therefore we seem to be enslaved.
