Does government create a wealth gap?

Does government create a wealth gap? “The political classes would like you to believe that putting more money into government makes things more equal. They’d like you to believe that because, in fact, putting more money into government puts more money into their pockets. The truth is, government doesn’t create wealth, it consumes it. And it doesn’t create equality, either. It undermines it.” And it’s also very good at blaming the problems it causes on someone else.
