Hint; the voters sent a clear message by voting it in; more tax, and a lot more government control over their lives.
With a one party rule, political power is concentrated to a few select individuals. The voters are essentially giving up their power and putting it in the hands of those select few individuals. That's great for people that don't mind being led. But like I said, nobody I know wants a bigger government.

Re-assess what? "nobody I know wants more big government" is a factual statement. Anyway, lets not turn this nice thread into a political thing.
