That simple statement might point up some significant differences in the way we view government.
It seems to me that BIG government, by its very bigness attracts attention from lobbyists who want to use that big government to favor themselves, and their clients. Far better, in my mind to distribute that power, greed and larceny among 50 state governments than in a single super-sized federal one.
I do agree that we are plagued with a government that is both big and bad.
