    Government in Business

    Murray Newton Rothbard (March 2, 1926 – January 7, 1995) was an American economist, historian, and political theorist.

        As for Government in business: governments running and profiting from Prisons (manufacturing and various services), Schools, Banking, Media and Security Services (police, etc.) what's left for anyone else to do? Could the problem with the economy be that Government being in business puts so many out of business and out of jobs as to promote poverty and economic dry spells? Oh wait, didn't the Communists in the Soviet Union pretty much run every 'business' in town?

        Nobody has combatted State Socialism more than we German Socialists; nobody has shown more distinctively than I, that State Socialism is really State capitalism! (Wilhelm Liebknecht - 1896)
        From the horses mouth? Capitalism is Socialism. Socialism ~= Communism. Freedom of trade and exchange is none of the above. The idea of Capitalism being "freedom of exchange and trade" in a society is one of the biggest deceptions. Capitalism, Socialism and Communism (i.e. Materialism or Resource Control-Ism) all deal with placing control over resources in the hands of a few rather than keeping Government to the business of governing or keeping things lawful and equitable. Free trade and exchange in a society is about fundamental right. Capitalism, Socialism and Communism have the majority going "ooh and ahh" while a minority hijack, rape and pillage their society, landscape and resources.

          Government, itself, is a corporation.

          Government is also a Multi-Family Office (MFO).
          I would urge looking at it from an MFO perspective more.

          In essence, it is all economic.
