"This notion that the smaller the government the better, that the biggest issue we confront is the size of government is a bizarre distraction. I have never known a progressive politician, any politician, to argue that we should make government huge, as big as possible, or taxes as high as possible. That it’s all about size. Clearly government should be only big enough to serve the public good and no bigger, and taxes high enough to pay for that and no higher. And deficits within reason, no problem. Size of government is a conjuror’s trick, distracting us from the real problems."
