Governments that hand out benefits are not making their citizens richer by generating new wealth; they are simply redistributing existing wealth. This also applies to government-created and guaranteed jobs: if a job is indeed productive, its output would be rewarded by other members of society who benefit from it, without the need for government subsidies and guarantees.
那些大撒金钱的政府并不是通过创造新财富的方式来令自己的人民更加富裕，相反他们只是在分配已有的财富而已。这一原理对于那些由政府创造并担保的工作同样适用；如果这个职位确实是对社会有利的，那么它的产品肯定会得到受益者的回报，自然也不需要政府补贴或者担保，而政府担保职位的行为只能说明这个职位是多余的。这些职位本身就是社会的负担，而非资产。
