Are you saying that a smaller government (usually associated with the right) dictator is actually possible?

Traditionally smaller government is not a rightist principle. It has only been recent. Traditionally the right favors a monarchy or more totalitarian and imperialistic government. Socialists have always been for more government, but pretend it will be a democracy. Originally a monarchy was not far from a socialistic government with only a few royals, and the commanders of the military were allowed to be rich. But they found that it was easier to get services from merchants, sailors, professionals, and other businessmen to allow capitalism. So my use is in the more traditional sense. Nazi's mixed right and left ideas, and incorporated or abandoned them as needed to gain and keep power.
