At some point you will lose. It is impossible to always win. Hence, the goal is as soon as the right is in power it should start cutting the size of the govt, so when the left gets in power it is left with a smaller govt than what it had before. If the left wants to go back to a bigger govt, then you can use it against them. But, if the right wants to mimick the left just to stay power, that is a losing proposition. People wouldn't uwant left-lite if it voted for the right. Next time, they would pick the real left.

To properly administer and enforce the rules for our new "guest workers" will require 200,000 government employees. I do not call that shrinking "guberment" by any means.

The size of government will continue to grow for as long as the population and complexity continues to grow. Andy Griffen and Don Knotts might be just fine for Mayberry (c. 1950s), but once that town starts to grow they are going to need alot more help.

The key is to proportionately grow the private sector just as fast, or faster. That is where we are falling down; it is not that the public sector is growing too fast; rather the population is growing too fast (largely illegal immigration), and the domestic private sector is barely growing at all. Until we fix that the US will continue to grow ever more socialist.
