I learned that in school Noel. Early on. But in case you missed it in school, here are a few of the 1, 300,000+ google sites that talk about "does the government create wealth"...

nzbr.org.nz Businesses Not Governments Create Wealth
toptips.com Bill Gates is worth Billions but he does not have Billions of Federal Reserve Notes in his wallet or buried in his back yard. His wealth is in "capital" assets, not in paper currency, so he is not taking money from you or me. Just the opposite, he is in the business of creating wealth; which helps all of us, and helps America!
Remember, the Government can never create wealth, it only prints currency. There is a big difference!
I stand corrected; Politicians can, and do, steal enough of our money to make themselves wealthy. However, they cannot make you, me, or any honest person wealthy!
Even though the Government cannot create wealth, it wants to be in the business of redistributing wealth from those who earned it, to those who just want it!
