		Andrew_Quentin on Aug 15, 2011 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Warren Buffett: Stop coddling the super rich That's not really a counter argument. You stated republicans stand for small government, not democrats. You were given concrete examples which disprove what you stated. Arguing that the democrats are just the same is simply stating that republicans do not stand for small government.

No, I didn't say Republicans stand for small government. Some of them do. Not enough.

But certainly people interested in a small, limited government aren't going to vote for redistributive policies.
