I always knew Politics was full of corruption, but I truly never expected the swamp to be THAT ENORMOUS and deep, basically every government agency is swamp rats and I always thought at the very least judges at the Supreme Court level would be the last stand of non corrupt justice, but man they even got to the judges. The US is on a glidepath to ruin within the next decade

why? you have to traverse the swamp to get there. People like Anthony De jasay, Murray Rothbard and Michael Huemer are generally right about the nature of the state.

Not just the state. Corporate leadership is no better. The universities are no better. Hollywood is no better.

The situation is a lot more complicated than big vs small government.

Corporate leadership are just cronies. They fall when the special privileges and regulatory capture goes away.
