10 Reasons Why Working Within The GOP Is Important For Liberty

4. Limited Government

The challenge that the GOP faces, as they work towards selecting their presidential nominee, will likely be their anemic support on issues relating to “limited government.” It is no secret that the GOP has found their limit government philosophy at odds with certain factions of the party, who subscribe to a more neoconservative brand of republicanism that includes large military budgets and deficit spending. They have coalesced with the aging faction of the GOP base who fear their social security and medicare will be taken out from under them as a result of reducing spending.

Less is more with both Republicans and libertarians, overall– at least a government that is limited by the Constitution. However, the Republican Party has lost its way on this issue and it’s fair to say that there is much room for a new, growing faction in the base.

Libertarians want to control the government, so we can make sure the government leaves everyone alone.
