the "small government" ideology isn't even their own, they're riffing off the goddamn yanks
Conservatisms goal everywhere is to destroy representative government — to render it toothless by making it a tool of the oligarchy — and return the peasants to feudalism, ruled by a corporate plutocracy.
That's why all conservative governments do the exact same thing; starve the beast, defund and privatise.
