“The bureaucracy is expanding to meet the needs of the expanding bureaucracy.” Quite. This quote sums up the problem when a system of offices and officers are allowed to rule over society on taxpayer funding, making rules and restriction, providing goods and services, yet never having to face the disciplining justice of liberty via the free market. Our world – particularly the West – has increasingly been struggling under the weight of a most misguided expansion of the state apparatus into the realm of the economy. While at this point in history I agree we need a state to provide laws, courts, police, prisons, military, politicians and bureaucrats, I believe we would be wise to keep them to their rightful role of enforcing the non-aggression principle (be free while letting others be free; so no harm) and come to our collective senses and begin to demand a shrinking of the state with the end goal of either a much lighter government intervention in the economy, or none at all. How simple it’d be to enjoy a society of minimalist bureaucracy! How much do we need?
