You're quite right about the private sector not being fine. Reid was blowing smoke. On the other issue though...

You need a strong public sector for a strong private sector. The private sector absolutely depends on Gov't services from police and courts to firefighters to road maintenance. That's where the real "confidence" they talk about comes from, and that's also where it's gone.

Taxes simply control who has what and how much money is circulating. The dirty secret of fiat currency...but also our salvation if we decide to take control of it.
