In my opinion a true sceptical dissection of government naturally coverts one at least as far as libertarianism as hopefully to full Anarcho-Capitalism. Just my view of course.
And people also clearly have a hard time applying that same skepticism to big business.
It always amazes me that people that are against the concentration of power in the government have no problem handing the reins over to the 1%.
