So what you're saying is that places where a bunch of freestaters congregate are places where the government grows?
No... but places where
freak-staters congregate, they give the Statists all the ammo they need to grow the government way faster than they've been able to until now.
In places where calm, respectable free-staters congregate, are well-known and well-liked by the respectable, non-bra-burning natives, and get themselves elected, you can bet your ass the budgets are held down, the police are not rapidly growing in size, and they aren't getting new cop toys to play with.
