The bigger the government, the more control.
Our Constitution was put into place in order to protect us from big government and keep us free.
The second amendment was enacted in order to guarantee that freedom.
The more we allow government to tax us and control how we live, the less free we will be.
We need to go back to the basics of our country and quit eroding the Constitution.
We need to elect Ron Paul----he is the only candidate who will adhere to Constitutional principles.

Does tapping phones to see who's a terrorist a part of govenment control? And then what next? No more smoking at the white house then no smoking in the military then you'd better be in your home at 10 pm or you'll be arrested? Hmmm, is there a militia to join near your home? Maybe it's time to get involved.

Only if you don't stay involved with the political process by monitoring the actions of your elected leaders, holding them accountable for the efficacy and appropriateness of their policies.
Secrecy means less freedom for Americans because we are then unable to hold our leaders accountable because we don't know what they are doing.

More government means more incompetence. To pay for the incompetence, they raise taxes. When people complain about the taxes, THEN they limit freedoms.

i think there is a delicate balance. more government means less freedom for some but more freedom for others. we gotta find an equilibrium.

Any time the government says "we want to do ____ for you..."
It means
"We want more tax money to spend because we think our judgment is superior to yours..."
Government programs ALWAYS limit personal freedoms.

Yes, this is the bottom line.
Also when is the last time you saw a politician proposing fewer government programs.
Government programs don't solve problems they are the problems.
