If the G spends $10 on computers, that’s $10 taken by force from a free thinking economic actor, and given to a government-selected computer vendor. Said vendor must be a disadvantaged transvestite Eskimo female. The G. will pay $10 for $6 worth of inferior computers, and half the money will be stolen. Simple fact — it is a PHYSICAL IMPOSSIBILITY for the G. to spend a single penny that it did not already take from the private economy. Or it can print it. Either way, not good. See my tagline.

Nothing is taken by force from anyone if the money spent was borrowed rather than taxed. And the $10 borrowed isn't going to hurt anybody.

Of course the cumulative effect of tens of trillions borrowed is well on the way to destroying our economy and possibly our society.
