More leftist insanity. When our country falls, what exactly does the government think is going to happen to them? It's madness.

They produce nothing. They create no wealth. In fact, they have no clue whence comes wealth anyway. Once they have taken everything, they will quickly run out of revenue since there will be no producers left.

What exactly do they expect to create at that point? And with what?

Yep, my sentiments exactly. The only thing I can think of is that they CAN'T think. They can't think this far ahead, because they are so sharply focused on getting and keeping all the power. Long-term consequences simply can't make it into their murky "thought" processes.
