    Therefore, the entire public sector ought to be privatised. Then hired back to do exactly the same work, but for multiple the amount.

    Few things in life are as profitable as selling to the government something the government could do itself, but can't or won't for whatever political reason.
    taxation at a level greater than 40% of GDP causes long term damage to economic growth.

    taxation at a level greater than 50% is immoral in addition to stupid.

    the optimum level of taxation that achieves a balance essential provision and economic growth is somewhere between 25% and 40%.

    government spending should attempt to provide the best return-on-investment for its public spending without damaging economic growth.

    included within this is the Defence spending.

    the ability of western-european social-democracies to continue to hire gender-awareness officers in the next fifty years is DIRECTLY dependent on what we do to promote growth NOW.

    failure to understand any of the above should be seen as worry indicator of mental incapacity.

    making hyperbolic comparisons should be seen as an indicator that you don't like the fact you don't have any good arguments against the facts above.
