About This Quote
There are many people who believe that government should be small, and that small government is a libertarian ideal. However, it’s not clear that smaller government necessarily means less liberty. In fact, it’s quite the opposite. In a country with a smaller government, there will be more freedom for people to get things done without interference from the government. In addition, a smaller government means less bureaucracy and lower overhead costs, which means it’s possible for businesses to do more to improve their bottom line without fear of bureaucratic harassment.
