- By state law doctors must now force a woman to watch an ultrasound of her unborn in an effort to guilt-trip her into keeping it. Such women are also required by law to sit through a session with a "small government" healthcare advisor who can try to talk her out of her decision.
- Our Small government has decided we are not allowed to buy alcohol on Sundays because of their small government philosophy of allowing religous values to trump the hours of operation set by a business owner for his own business.
- Our small Indiana government can now ask you for proof of US CItizenship if they suspect you might not be one when they pull you over for speeding. They get to use lots of "small government" criteria when making that judgement - like noting the Jesus Bobblehead doll on the dashboard.
Aint small government great? =)
