[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Do you think it’s fiscally healthy to have the USG as the nation’s largest employer? It’s not sustainable.[/quote] We have fewer federal employees compared to total population than we did in the past. [/quote] This argument is a total red herring. The value added to our country by pooling funds to sustain the many public goods we share is enormous, and the cost to each individual by taking on those burdens or doing without the public good is not sustainable. The more we can share these burdens, the better will be our collective AND individual fiscal health. Just to name a few of the many public goods individuals would not be able to pay for, nor private companies benefit by supplying them: national defense, street lighting, clean air, public parks, and basic scientific research[/quote]
