Anyone have a breakdown of the percentage of government spending that goes to all businesses? I guess what I’m looking for is what amount of the economy is actually producing things that benefit civilization, versus what is directed by the State. How many people would be completely useless if they didn’t have a government job. #asknostr

how do you think you would go about collecting the data to assess this. how long would it take. what methodology would you use. what level of expertise would you need to have.

is that person on nostr?

No idea. Probably a crapload of research and how would it be done? Maybe there are some similar studies over with the guys at the Mises institute?

doubtful they said 'Austrian school of economics' so they are out as far as trust goes except for extenuating circumstances of singular exemptions

Apologies. Wish I did, mate. It might be next to impossible to come up with an accurate assessment if this because the state won't ever be upfront to any of us about how large their black budget truly is. 🤷‍♂️

I suppose you could start by taking into account your country's current unemployment rate, how quickly it's risen over the past few years, check if there's been an increase in military enlistment, immigration levels and how many of these immigrants are employed full-time.

Government corporation is a business!! They're lying when they tell you its not-for-profit!Convincing good guys they're good by enforcing the law. Like for saving and collecting water from nature to water your own garden or car wash. Or protecting you from corrupted Bitcoin while screaming to consumer they're protecting them while Sam bankman robs everyone. Just protecting your rights, they say.
