re: #17 Jetpilot1101

At the same time though I think the idea about small government needs revisiting. The world in the coming years is very different from what it was 100 years or even 50 years ago. The challenges are different and every country needs to figure out how best to meet the challenges ahead (climate change which is potentially catastrophic, energy crisis and a much faster rate of change than we have already seen). What kind of government does that require? Where does the country go?
