I am so Sick of the "Party of small government"

[Under The Radar]

The Republican claims for small government is only a disguise for privatization of Government Agencies the services that they provide and the industries that they regulate.
Why privatization? That is because Government Agencies do not pay political contributions, kickbacks and cushy positions as lobbyists after they have finished a few terms in the legislature.
Their claims to reduce regulation and oversite is of the same vine, government regulations cost corporations money. One must ask themself why the regulation was created to begin with, there is a purpose that they most likely were created to safe lives of workers, environment, and citizens. But those folks don’t seem to donate as much as corporations do.
