Limited government (in many respects) is absolutely what we want and need. There is absolutely a role for active government. But when the government is withholding a building permit for modification to a house because the first 6 feet of the land is gravel instead of grass because the previous owners used the area of the house as a carport for their boat and drove over that gravel and the portion of the house is being turned into an office, that's ridiculous government bureaucracy.
