MILEI AT THE U.N.: STATES, FAR FROM CREATING WEALTH, THEY DISTROY IT "It is in the enlargement of the State—at the expense of citizen freedoms— where politicians gain power. For politicians it will always be profitable to sacrifice 'the future' on the altar of 'the present', because consuming accumulated capital yields momentary wellness, and this yields votes. States do not create wealth, but steals it and destroys it." -President Javier Milei @JMilei
