The real problem is that the government has gooten so big and bloated because people have been laying their freedom at the feet of the imperial federal government for a hundred years now, hoping to get security in exchange for those sacrificed freedoms.

So now when eople are faced with adversity, be it from a hurricane, a healthcare crisis or whatever they expect government to fix it because they are no longer self reliant but depend on government to manage every aspect of their lives.

The result being that the very act thing they did that was to make them more secure (giving up their own freedom and responsibility) is now the reason they are no longer free or secure.
