He Can't Figure It Out

A commenter over at Althouse has a complaint.

I can't figure out the liberal philosophy. On the one hand, they voice an explicit distrust of the government and authority, yet on the other hand their policy solutions all require an intrusive, big government. It's not a philosophy; it's schizophrenia.

Let me change just one word and lets see if we get any closer to reality?

I can't figure out the conservative philosophy. On the one hand, they voice an explicit distrust of the government and authority, yet on the other hand their policy solutions all require an intrusive, big government. It's not a philosophy; it's schizophrenia.

The answer is simple. We are a one Party State. We have two factions of the Bigger State Party vying for control. And at the end of the day you can be sure of one result. A bigger state.

But who knows? These days maybe the ranks of The Enemies Of The State are growing. I hope so.
