As government grows to larger and larger shares of the economy, the disparity between the top earners and the low earners will increase.

Big government rewards the few and enslaves the many.

If people want to tighten up the income distribution they need to shrink government. Big government always sets barriers to competition promoting oligopoly. Without competition, the companies paying lower wages can’t turn their competitive advantage into beneficial market entry and hence can’t siphon the froth to lower income workers.

Income inequality is a good thing and necessary for a healthy free market economy. It is not a bad thing like the left keeps preaching. Income inequality is the carrot that pulls people up the economic ladder. Only in Marxist ideology is income inequality a bad thing so that “income redistribution” is needed. Our government has no business trying to manipulate income distribution—our free market economy does that more efficiently and correctly that central planned governments.
