> I want the government to fear the people, not the other way around. I want the government to fear me, as a voter and as a citizen and that does not happen when you are financially dependent on the government to survive, off entitlements.
> Opposition to too much government dependence is probably rooted in a desire to keep the government small and to control their desire to grow, to keep their power minimized.
Thanks for explaining. If I understand you right, you don't want government to get too powerful. You want the people to have some power, too. Which maybe fits with gun culture.
