There seems to be no place for those who want to decrease the size of the federal government. Regardless of what they say, all the candidates should be on the (increase the size of government) side except Ron Paul.
Indeed. Because of how I answer questions, I show up as economic left, but in reality I think I'm more center than that (at least in terms of overall governmental size). Basically, I think we ought to increase spending on some things and drastically reduce spending on others, but I think that the net result should be a large reduction in government spending. That kind of opinion isn't represented on these types of charts.
