They make this a damn religious war over big government. We the people want to be left alone!

Well, the people in charge aren't GOING to leave you alone until you control a State powerful enough to make them leave you alone.

If you think reversal of the revolution, or the "fundamental transformation" if you prefer can be done by a weak government or ten million deer hunters, you probably spent too much time listening to Ronald Reagan.

He weakened the central government so much that the bolsheviks could just walk in and take over.

Reversing the damage is a huge undertaking and will require a very forceful approach - one only an extremely strong central government could carry out.

We crush them by building a giant all-powerful federal government, how do we word that political campaign?
