Thug Government
Speaking as a Progressive, I see the Conservatives as aspiring to a "Thug" government, one which exists only to enforce the will of the bosses. I think this is what Eric Cantor meant, when he objected to President Obama's speech about businesses having a responsibility to the nation. In the Conservative view, the responsibility goes one way, from the peons to their lords. The objective of Thug Government is to ensure that the overlords are fat and happy, for then their largesse shall trickle down upon the rest of us. If we are worthy.
