We are not all in this together

Government has grown entirely to large. We were not born to live in servitude to a bloated federal government.

It's not true we are all in this together – there is a private class, and there is a government class. The government class is under the assumption that the tax dollars that feed them will always be available.

When you lose your job, when you default, when you struggle to fill your tank for $4.00 per gallon, when you struggle to pay for a cart full of food, does the government cry for you? Because I have a hard time crying for the nonessential casualties from the shutdown.

Government creates nothing. They take and distribute. Growing the public sector does not grow an economy. Private sector companies building products that are needed or desired by consumers, traded by free association. With a demand that requires additional labor, that's what creates wealth and growth.

You can't make the pool deeper by moving a bucket of water from the east end of the pool and pouring it into the west end.
