I don't either, but, if we apply the reasoning above to the private sector, then both government and the private sector "confiscates wealth." 


Or, neither do.






Exactly right, which is why we need government controls on capitalism.  Capitalism remains, with all of the above noted, the primary engine of creating wealth.




If there is no national security interest in rebuilding America, then we're not all that far from third world status.  I'm hoping at least that the premise of no interest in rebuilding is incorrect. 


The primary interest in government just now seems to be to make one's own party look good by making the opposition appear as bad as possible.  That's the mentality that has to change, IMO, in order to ward off that third world nation status that seems to be coming.
