Also, how many FReepers advocate using government to spare domestic businesses from foreign competition through the use of trade barriers? How many like to focus on making everything a federal issue? Truth is, is that many of the most hard core conservatives found here, are not ones to extoll a limited government some of the time. Sad but true.
And all the ones that do, are libertarians. It's always been the rub, liberals want protection FOR vice, conservatives want protection FROM vice. Libertarians figure vice is up to you and giving government that much power is a REALLY bad idea. Best to let people just screw up their own lives as we have our hands full dealing with our own problems.
