RE: Austria has the highest social expenditure in the world (of all OECD countries).

I dont have a particular max a country should spend. Its up to its people to elect a government that choose strategy. But what I have something against is corruption, spending money on stuff we arent suppose to spend on and building a large class of citizens that gets their money from the state.

Every dollar spent on shit is theft from the collective money collected by taxes etc.

Good point, often gov also overpays 2x-3x when doing something, either because of corruption or inefficiency, or both.

Yeah that also drives me nuts because people seems to just "accept" that. They say like "oh well, when the public sector does stuff it always goes over budget and over time" but no one is ever accountable...
