YES! You've got it. The US government has exploded to become an oppressive bureaucracy that does more harm than good with alot of over regulation. It is also involved in ALOT of places that the consitution strictly enumerates are state government affairs.
Now, I'm not saying I want ararchy but I am saying I want the US government to reflect what the original drafters of the constitution intended. As a matter of fact in 1894 the Supreme Court ruled the income tax unconstitutional.
It isn't government I don't trust... it is the members of government that this it is a job, a way to gain power and such. Career senators and congresspeople is what scares me. We should have term limits and you are not allowed to run again... if I couldn't be a Congressman for more than 4 years... lobbyist would have alot less leverage over me.
