“The bedrock issue is whether we should have a larger and more expensive federal government.”
No, the bedrock issue is whether we should have less freedom and more “services.” Freedom or security (slavery).
Anyone calling it simply “more government” is repeating, reinforcing and sanctioning The Lie.
“Sell not virtue to purchase wealth, nor Liberty to purchase power.”
Benjamin Franklin
I have been trying to recall the Republicans reducing the size and scope of government. Now let me think.....Nope can’t recall. Can anyone think of one?
