- A bigger government doesn't always mean more bureaucracy. Sometimes, more money just flows through the same systems without needing extra workers.
- Smaller governments can create more confusion by pushing tasks to local groups or private companies, leading to more regulations and complexity.
- Clear standards and smart designs in government can help manage complexity better than just trying to shrink the size of the state.
