"Well, I reckon the whole world is open for anyone to steal." - Fester Chugabrew

I apologize for my previous curt comment.

The problem is not so much who's in government as it is the size of government. Consistent with your response, there are two types of theft: governmental and private. We tolerate government to protect us from private theft, but the government itself can grow so large that it becomes the greater threat to its citizens property. The correct size of government would minimize total thievery, i.e., the sum of governmental and private theft.
