Lysander Spooner once again lays out the government for what it is, a band of robbers and thieves with the carefully crafted veneer of legitimacy. Mr. Trice ought to consider any economic/political theory on how the most powerful and rich are made and kept so ludicrously affluent through the use of the governments protections and favors to benefit them at the expense of others. If he thinks that the New Deal for example was NOT the brainchild of wall street then he is sorely mistaken.
