I find the belief that government is the only limit to wealth creation very intriguing. I also find it interesting that the talking points usually contrast "free markets", which I assume represents the best case, with just "government". Markets can be limited or impacted by forces outside of government (price fixing, monopolies, manipulation). Is there an equivalent best-case scenario for "governments" that we can use as a reference when discussing how they impact free markets?


Nobody has discovered any limit to wealth creation, but governments have been very successful with putting a stop to it.
