Conservatives who argue to “limit” the welfare state are routinely painted as cold-hearted by welfare state supporters. With good reason.
“I support government programs to assist those truly in need, but we must keep welfare programs from growing too big,” is the standard conservative refrain.
With that admission, however, “limited government conservatives” give up the game.
Once they’ve stated their support for the principle that the State is justified in forcibly taking money from some in order to give it to others, the debate shifts from the moral justifications of the welfare state itself to merely a disagreement over who should qualify to receive the benefits.
Who gets to define who qualifies as “truly needy?”
Defining the eligibility thresholds for welfare programs and determining what spending levels somehow make these programs “too big” are mere arbitrary markers.
In effect, these conservatives are saying: “I agree that government should take money to help this group of less-fortunate people, but extending benefits to that group of people is too much.”
At this point, there is no other logical conclusion to be drawn by the welfare statists other than these conservatives are just stingy and have no compassion for that group of people as well. What else could explain their willingness to extend government benefits for people below an arbitrarily chosen income threshold, but somehow deny benefits to people making just one dollar more than that arbitrary amount?
