What do companies do that government does not do?Same thing holds true, you fucking moron. Government adds NOTHING of value. Government ALWAYS operates at a loss.Tell that to the military and to disaster victims you fucking moron.
Put one dollar in, get less than one dollar out -- because you have to pay the people collecting, counting, and disbursing the dollars.
Then, by your accounting, every company operates at a loss because it costs to produce.
The reality of economics and accounting is that the governmemt is simply another company with a mandatory subscription price. It collects revenue, pays for labor and materials, and provides a product. Numerous products.
Honestly, daveman, the more I read your posts, the more I recognize that your concepts of economics, accounting, and government...your common sense, is off in la la land.
You should simply throw out everything you think you know and start over from the correct foundation. This foundation is that economics is about the production and redistribution of goods and services. It is not about money. Money is a social tool that we use to account for the redistribution of goods and services.
Build in profit.
It seems you forgot that reality of economics and accounting.
I repeat: Government adds nothing of value, and always operates at a loss.
This is undeniable.
