I believe that smaller government is better government. But I also believe that in the areas where government does play a legitimate role, we should demand that it is done better.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
We don't need bigger government. We need to shrink the size of government.
Big-government proponents embrace both the power of the federal government and the idea that millions of Americans ought to be dependent on its largesse. It's time to return to our Founders' love for small government. More is not always better.
That government is best which governs least.
The only way to make government more efficient is to make it smaller and to make it more local.
It matters more how governments behave than how big they are.
Washington politicians think that government can make better decisions than you and me. But we know better. We know it's smaller, less intrusive government that will lead to real economic prosperity. We know it's business-friendly policies, not more red tape, that will create real growth.
Politicians are good at saying how Government must do more, but we must also think carefully about where Government should do less.
I've always been about less government.
It's businesses versus big government. We don't need big government. We need a more efficient, lean government, and that's exactly the kind of government we intend to deliver.
After 20 years in Congress, I still believe that smaller government and lower taxes are the most effective economic policies.
