We have 'socialism for the rich'. The old conservative idea that a smaller government would make people more self-reliant and willing to make sacrifices on behalf of economic elites no longer apply when the corporate elites bleed the system. Big Government can generate huge profits, as shown with the 43rd and 45th Presidents.
