tax rate is proportional to unemployment rate. What tax? Is it true for sales tax, excise tax, duties, Income tax, business tax, etc.

Bingo! The only way to get more of everything is to provide incentives for people to produce them, NOT to increase the ability for people to consume them. Do the former and the latter looks after itself. Low taxes and leaving it easy to go into business and go bust are good incentives.

Have you ever seen an NFL game where an aerial shot of the host city shows a lot of fancy expensive downtown glass and steel tower buildings? One thinks, "look at all that wealth". The wealth of it all is ZERO. When one comprehends this assertion, one can be considered to have advanced in the understanding of principles of economics. if the buildings are being used, and they would probably be replaced if destroyed, why wouldn't they be considered wealth? i'd very much like to know what the definition of wealth is.
