People who think, work, create, invest, plan, and carry out productive projects make the world work. People who collect taxes, create mountains of unnecessary regulations, threatening violence against those who fail to comply with them, and devote vast amounts of extorted resources to wreaking senseless death and destruction at home and abroad also make the world work—but much, much for the worse.
We should consider them “overhead” and our employees. As such, we should expect more as we are the ones that are signing the front side of their paychecks. And they seem to forget that, don’t they?
(H/T: Cafe Hayek)
