Politics = Exploitation

Instead of getting more from government for less most of us will end up with less for more - more taxes, deficits, debt. An economic reset to balance limitless demands with finite supply can be expected in the form of depression or inflation. The US petrodollar is already threatened. So is the dollar’s  status as the premier world reserve currency. International trade will increasingly be done with other currencies. When the US dollar gets rejected all those trillions of unwanted dollars will return to the US from around the world and result in serious inflation. Inflation is a kind of tax which will make Americans poorer and less able and willing to support government. That is when people will demand more libertarians to legislate less government. Until that time arrives libertarians promising less government favors and benefits will continue to experience political suicide. But the wait may not be long for voters to recognize Less Is More.

While government expenses mount promised stuff will diminish. Costs will overshadow benefits. That is when less government will again be recognized as the General Welfare.
