Big Government Libertarianism?

To me, the idea of "big government libertarianism" is like standing in a room full of government bureaucrats, but instead of them facing you, they're all standing with their backs to you. They may not be scrutinizing your every move, but you still can't move around freely. At least not as long as you behave yourself, because all they would have to do is turn around and you're busted. In other words, there is no such thing as big government libertarianism. It's a myth, a sham, a ruse to allow big government. You simply cannot have big government and individual liberty at the same table. Power, greed, nepotism and all of those other nasty human features that surface when you create big government will not allow individual liberty to co-exist. The one will try to squash the other out of shear paranoia.

 

So, if you're a big government libertarian, you may want to reevaluate your position. You've chosen a path that will only lead to your demise.
