It depends on who controls it.
The right wing narrative of 'Big Government' = evil establishment is false and dangerous because it leads to weakening the power of democratic institutions over corporations. Less big Government in practice means more inequality.
Democratic Government needs more power and needs to be free from corporate interests so it can be a real friend.

@Burnley123 Sorry, more government equals a nanny state. Sorry, we already have a government that tells us what kind of toilets we have and other stuff that they have have no business in. I prefer not to have a government that regulates my freedoms down to even flushing the toilet.

@bigjohndl Not sure what you are referring to specifically but I think hygiene regulation is important.
My perspective is libertarian left. I am in favour of freedom for individual choice but generally against freedom for capital. Allow too much freedom for business then it restricts personal choice and opportunities.
