Many individuals think that the Fed?
oral government is a source of many
i goods. Few fail to realize that every1
thing produced is produced by the
pe- pie. and everything that the government
gives to the people, it must
first take from them in the form of
taxes, assessments, and other means
of procurement.
TH i - - At-: n A *
nit- uiuy wiuig inai government nas
to spend is that money which is taxed
or borrowed out of the individual
employees earnings. When government
decides to spend more than it
has as current income, that extra
amount of unearned revenue must be
created by some type of legislative
means.
When the government resorts to
deficit financing, it too often reduces
the value of all money, savings, etc.
This contributes to the age old problem
on inflation?a nroeram of mnrh
concern for everyone.

All productivity is based on three
factors: (1) natural resources, whose
form, place and condition are changed
by the expenditure of (2) human energy
(both muscular and mental), with
the aid of (3) tools.
Tools are the only one of these three
factors that man can increase without
limit, and tools come into being in a
free society only when there is a reward
for the temporary self-denial that
people must practice in order to channel
part of their earnings away from
purchases that produce immediate comi
fort and pleasure, and into new tools
of production. Proper payment for the
use of tools is essential to their creation.
The productivity of the tools?that is,
the efficiency of the human energy applied
in connection with their use?has
1 always been highest in a competitive
society in which the economic decisions
( are made by millions of progressseeking
individuals, rather than in a
state-planned society in which those
decisions are made by a handful of all
powerful people, regardless of how
well-meaning, unselfish, sincere and
: intelligent those people may be.
