I keep trying to explain to you that smaller government is a euphemism for cut all the social programs. That is all it means. Cut all the programs that the rich have to support through their taxes.

That is what is going on here. If you are rich then you don't need to worry to much. But if you have family or friends that depend on social services, they are going to be out of luck.

That is all smaller government means. Tax cuts for the rich and to get rid of all the social programs. That is it in a nutshell.

If that is what you want, that is what you got!
