Use this example- each time a dollar bill is exchanged in a store, it generates 5-8% tax for the government. The average lifespan of a dollar bill is 4 years.

Each dollar printed generates approximately 100 dollars in tax revenue.

The government is a leech on society, and nothing else.

The government should exist to do only ONE THING.

Protect private property.

Everything else is socialism.
