HN rules: apply the most gracious interpretation to my comment.

> you'd see the vast mmajority of tax revenue is spent on welfare

That is the point from the prior comment I am supporting. I am emphasizing that this is true because of the inevitability of bureaucracy inside of the very notion of "government".

Government was never capable of efficient utilization of taxes for maximizing benefits to society. It can never promise that due to basic incentive structures and the mathematics of game-theory. Of course, politicians can lie about it (and many do all the time).

It can only promise an attempt and some degree of benefits provided.
