Vicious Cycles of Statism

This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and let's start trying
To make it a place worth living in
--Genesis

Ron Paul sketches various vicious cycles of statism. They include:

Invade country-->destroy-->occupy
Redistribute wealth-->increase poverty
Failed govt program-->increase program funding
GOP wins-->grow govt-->Dems win-->grow govt
Print money-->wreck economy

And, of course:

How to break these vicious cycles? With liberty, of course.

Liberty spawn voluntary cooperation and exchange. Sound money. Peace.

Paul asserts that these vicious cycles "will continue to squeeze the life" from citizens until "the desire for liberty dominates. And not a moment sooner."
