Better question: Why do you assume anyone who is against excessive government interloping is an anarchist?

they're also (typically) in favor of the drug war, which is literally the federal government telling you what you can and can't do with your own body.

To get back on topic: Conservatives favor small government when it suits their needs and favor government intervention when it suits their needs. There is practically no consistency in their "small government" belief, other than maximizing personal benefit while minimizing personal contribution and responsibility. --- Now Playing: Persona 5 (PS4), The Old Blood (PC) (~);} - Get out the pans, don't just stand there dreamin' - {;(~) ...

Small government, not no government. this would imply that they would still be very vociferous in opposing, say, public labor unions in that sector the way they attempt to fight public labor unions in other sectors of the economy that are generally considered to be a legitimate part of government (public education, say) but in practice I don't think I've ever seen any one take on a police union, but especially not a conservative or Republican --- He would make his mark, if not on this tree, then on that wall; if not with teeth and claws, then with penknife and razor. ...

Why would it imply that? Then it is bullshit. How can some go on about the problems of too much government involvement but be totally alright with our bloated military? If everything else is better with less government meddling, then why not security as well?

Why would it imply that? Because the reason to oppose labor unions in the public sector is that they use their clout to unjustly increase the size of their budgets and "turf" beyond what is reasonable and necessary for the government to function efficiently. What does that have to do with proportions? I didn't say you couldn't think the police should get 10000x more money than the people who make sure you pay your taxes so they can get said money. That's not the issue i have. --- He would make his mark, if not on this tree, then on that wall; if not with teeth and claws, then with penknife and razor. ... Copied to Clipboard!
