Will there still be a Public Good?

taxes2

“Why do we force people to pay taxes?”

Because they wouldn’t pay otherwise.

“Why wouldn’t they?”

They would consider other things more important.

“What are taxes for?”

To serve the public good.

“Who defines the public good?”

The voters, when the vote for their representatives.

“If the public votes for evil will there still be a public good?”
