[edit] big/small

What about the fact that "Big" and "Small" are relative terms - what you call small government, I call big government. Any government at all could always be smaller.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Matthew238 (talk • contribs) 01:26, 21 November 2006

Yes, what's considered big depends on one's perspective. Arguing against big government is tantamount to arguing that the government is too big. To call a four bedroom house a big house is to say that it's too big, though to someone with six bedrooms it might not seem big. They're perhaps not the most articulate words, but they portray meaning nonetheless.--Zachbe (talk) 13:46, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] POV

This article is unreferenced, and seems to support a particular point of view. Anyone have any references or ways to fix this? /Blaxthos 22:24, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
