The extent to which interventionism and all forms of statist economic policy are woven into the power structure of our politics is shown, among other things, by the so-called Laffer curve. The empirical data is clear: if the state expands too far and taxes rise too high, the tax revenue of the private productive sector collapses. The question is, why is this context, which is empirically well documented, not being discussed more massively by the private sector in order to exert pressure on politicians?

We are experiencing an asymmetry of power in favor of the parasitic sector, whose inherent growth in power continues to erode the productivity of the private sector, which is necessary for social productivity and stability, and which maneuvers itself into a credibility trap when its actions and failures become openly apparent. Until then, the fiscal raid on the wallets of the middle class will inevitably intensify.

The Laffer curve implies a fiscal and economic death spiral!
