Government is a necessary evil

I like this quote:


"Government spending does not create prosperity. Government is an expense to any nation, it is a necessary expense when it is confined to its legitimate role of simply protecting natural rights from legitimate foreign and domestic enemies, but when it ventures beyond this role and takes on the powers of economic manipulation, it destroys wealth which is the basis of prosperity. Instead of making us richer, it actually makes us poorer for it."


Government is a necessary evil. We can't do without government, yet the flaw of democracy is that govenment is always allowed to grow too big. Eventually it will burden a nation so greatly that it will break down. This is what has been happening for years in US, some European countries, and Japan. The breaking point will be pretty soon.
