People need to stop viewing government as the third party it has become and remember that it is supposed to be an expression of their own voices, then fight like hell for its restoration as such. Because, there will always be someone jockeying to rule over the masses (financially or otherwise), whether it's moneyed corporations and individuals directly or those who manipulate a government, irrespective of whether they claim they want it to be small. The idea behind a democratic government is simply self-rule. As such, advocating for its weakening is advocating a silencing of your own voice. And where does that lead? A strong democratic government is a good thing for "the people" when it functions properly and protects the less powerful. But, it doesn't. Our government has long been captured by those who are in position to bend it to their will (i.e. those same parties who would rather you dispense with government so they can rule more efficiently). So, that is the trick: subverting government, then convincing the weak that the only fix is to dismantle it. But, the solution is to get the money out and return it to the people, not do away with it altogether and invite a small minority to rule over the masses with impunity.
