Welfare,To,Self-Sufficiency

RECENTLY, I had a conversation with a friend who said that nowadays, corruption makes the government run. It is an unfortunate cycle that we have been stuck in for years. The easiest example of this involves private individuals, who can both be a victim and a conduit when they bribe government employees or allow themselves to be extorted.

In this way, we can see that corruption in government is a two-way tango between the state and the people.While this is a sad thought, I still believe that there are many good and honorable members of our government, as well as the private sector. However, it may be time for us to rethink the role of government and limit it. This is because when the government overextends itself beyond its logical and divine role of protecting man's freedoms, corruption can penetrate it.

The more that government seeks to do something that we should and could be doing for ourselves and our family, an immediate trade off happens — what the government will give to one, it will first take away from another. The greater the dole-outs, freebies and social welfare activities, the higher the taxes and the fiercer the taking of properties and freedoms from others.
