No I think the size of government is directly related to how we can
deal with other issues.
Virtually all issues can be handed betted by state and local
governments than they can by a larger federal government. State and
local governments know the people and specific things that make their
local population different than say the population in a state 2,000
miles away.
The federal government is a one size fits all solution. That can
never work. The federal government has one primary duty. To protect
us. State and local governments can handle everything else more
efficiently and with greater compassion, as they know the people.
Take my 38%. Fine, that is what I pay to live here. But to spend it
wisely, it will take the state and local governments.
