I suppose the next thing is that my state will decide that they can invest my savings better than I can, and therefore gain more in income taxes--and then they'll seize my savings? That's the same theory, as far as I can tell.

I'm wondering about patents and copyrights that could be more effectively used by promoters. Once you open the door to real estate can other property be far behind ?

What ever happened to "Of the people, by the people, for the people" ?

Now it is "Of the state, by the state, for the state". Get used to it.

You got it.

We can wish ourselves blue in the face, but reality will still be there when we start breathing again.
