I, as a libertarian, want more liberty, less government and our own freedom of choices. Why less government? Because Big Government is Bad for people. I came across many written books and articles that clearly explain why Big Government is Bad. I offer this one extract from an article I read some time ago and will include a link to said article for individual edutainment.
"The Bill of Indictment
What is so bad about big government? My indictment of big government is that it is bad because it attacks liberty, prosperity, progress, harmony, and morality. Thanks to big government, we have significantly less of all of those good things than we would if we had been able to keep government right-sized.
Big government is cancerous. Like a cancer, it hurts the body and tends to spread, doing more and more harm as it grows. It is time for some radical surgery."
