most left people end up way way more right than they thought they really are. because they have a bad understanding of what big government is and what parts of it they actually like and dont like.
big government:
-free money
-universal healthcare
-free school
(sounds great! if im not allowed/able to give it to myself, ill take the handout like a tool)
at the expense of:
-low wages for the rest of your life
-fake news
-being spied on constantly
-less freedom of speech
-all the products and services you use will go up in price and all be owned by the same few corporations so no competition or growth of small business.
