Most Americans I think have this belief that government is too big and not effective as it could be or whatever.

That we could always do with a little less government.

The truth is as long as the government is liberal, verging on democratic socialism even, the better it will be and the proof is the Nordic countries.

But brainwashing has prevented us from achieving this.
