The Sybiotic Relationship of Big Government and Corruption

Small government -- one limited in size and scope to what our country's founders contemplated and sought to provide for by the Constitution -- is likely to be clean and decent. It would not and could not do enough to make it worth buying.

Government swollen to what we have today inevitably breeds corruption simply because it is everywhere, doing everything and therefore very much worth influencing. Such a government always and everywhere inevitably will come to belong to those who one way or another can pay the most to buy control of it.
