Nothing about the parent comment made me think they wanted to abolish the federal government. What I took it is as we need fewer laws, fewer agencies, and much better oversight and accountability of those agencies.

Replace "abolish" with "weaken", and my comment remains the same.

Moreover, oversight and accountability cost money, which leads to more bloat, which leads to more people complaining about government.
