Who?
I know of nobody that stupid. Wanting limits on government (as provided for by our founding fathers) is not the same as "hating government", something you seem to assume about all conservatives.
You question anybody who questions govenment growth. Equating that with wanting to eliminate government is the equivalent of the toddler who, when he doesn't get his way, says he's going to hold his breath untill passing out, just to teach mommy a lesson. What's the point? The adults simply laugh at the silliness.
Government, and private enterprise, are both run by PEOPLE. Mostly well-meaning people, but both government and free enterprise have a few kooks. Both need to have someone looking over their shoulder to keep the kooks out of control.
Super, you're my favorite lib here, because you truely want to disculss ideas, rather than the standard name calling. But this one really stretches the "give an inch, take a mile" to absurdity.
If you can find a quote of anybody here wanting to eliminate the government outside of the military, I will join you in mocking them.
