Besides, it's fewer constraints on individuals, not less.

I thought Republicans were AGAINST government intrusion into our daily lives. I thought they were for SMALLER government.

The GOP believes in less regulation on business and more constraints on individuals.

The Dems believe in more regulation on business and less constraints on individuals.

Except for gun control.

Conservatives believe in less regulation on both.

Liberals believe in MORE constraints on individuals through confiscatory tax policies, health insurance mandates and regulation of business, because, believe it or not, INDIVIDUALS own and INDIVIDUALS rely on businesses. Individual freedom depends on free markets and economic freedom, except in the bizarro world of socialism.

I guess the Republicans aren't conservatives then.
