Believe it or not, there are people out there who believe that virtually everything the government does is evil, and therefore, the less they do, the better.

I have a brother-in-law who actually said that it's a good thing when the president belongs to one party and the other party controls Congress (but not with enough of a majority to override a veto)--because less gets done that way.

I guess you'd call that a conservative point of view, but I've never heard a Republican politician say that it's a good thing to have a few Democrats around (or vice versa).
