The government is growing in complexity and there is an constantly increasing cost of doing buisness in America, and this can be demonstrated simply by examining the complexity of the tax code which has grown from 8,200 pages in 1945 to 71,684 pages in 2010. |
Is the government budget deficit really 10% of GDP? That can't be true.
