GrokTV Special Interview: Josh Youssef for NH State Senate. Question 9: Proper Role of Government – Too big, just right, or too small?

Of course, my favorite question has to be wedged in somewhere during an interview, and with Josh Youssef, it was (and is) the last question of the series.  One of the most telling differences between Statists / Big Government folks and Conservatives / Liberty and Freedom folks is what their idea of what Government is supposed to do, what its function within Society, and what is its ideal size.  Thus the question:

Is NH’s Government too big, too small, or just right?
