If a nation has a government that is 40-50% of GDP (or more), it will ALWAYS trend towards tyrants and psychopaths in power.

It will also be forced into constant war, ever-growing debt and debasement to keep itself alive.

And the larger government, the more brutal it will become.

Sorry, its an iron law of nature and totally unavoidable.

Don’t worry. I heard Kirk Cameron tell over 1,500-2,500 applauding Christians that America is going to be around for another 1,000 years.

SMH (I did, too)
