<<<< But you don't argue against that stuff by talking about "bigger" or "smaller" governmen>>>>>

Right! You argue can we afford it. That is the purpose of a budget, but we have moved away from that. Now we just say what do you want. Ya, I don't give a shit how big or small government is - and I don't care if government is smart government or dumb government - because economics is the measure of that. Economics - should be - the measure of that. Sooooooo, if it's a good and wise program - people will be willing to tax themselves for it.
