Government Work

And the men who spurred us on, sit in judgement of all wrong
They decide, and the shotgun sings the song
--The Who

There are other truths that we can add to our list. These truth are related to government.

Power. Governments have a natural appetite for power.

Intrusiveness. Governments possess passion to act upon people's lives.

Self-perpetuation. Governments possess a will to live. They never dissolve voluntarily.

Inflation. Governments have a proclivity toward inflation. Inflation buys power.

Any economic system must cope with these realities.
