Gov. Inslee and Loren Culp debated crime, coronavirus and climate in this week鈥檚 Washington gubernatorial debate. For 成人X站 Radio鈥檚 John Curley, Culp seemed to take an almost libertarian point of view with regards to not wanting the government to run people鈥檚 lives and businesses.

鈥淗e’s not gonna win, but at least he seemed to be well-versed. He was able to just point out sort of a libertarian point of view when it comes to the position of government and the idea that you don’t need a moral leader,鈥 he said.

鈥溾業’m gonna run my family, I’m gonna run my life, I’m gonna run my business. And I don’t need the government telling me what I need to do.鈥欌

Tom & Curley: With Regal closing and delays, it鈥檚 as if 2020 didn鈥檛 exist for movies

Co-host Tom Tangney was not entirely taken with Culp, and thought he captured a boilerplate defiant attitude without getting into details.

鈥淚 feel like aww; I feel like almost patting him on the head 鈥 I sort of feel like Loren Culp is that guy who’s sort of like 鈥榊ou’re not the boss of me.’ So it’s kind of a boilerplate libertarian, sometimes Republican agenda, with no taxes, smaller government,鈥 Tom said.

Tom & Curley: Though Trump is higher risk with COVID, he has the best care

鈥淚 don’t think that he came with any kind details, but he has this kind of attitude or stance toward the government that, you know, I’m sure a lot of people — not a majority — but a lot of people sort of feel like.鈥

But Curley sees the issue of big government as inextricably linked to how Washington state has handled schools, coronavirus, and nearly every other issue.

鈥淚t’s simplistic to believe that the government is going to solve all of your problems. And the bigger the government, the more money we pour into it, and the sooner the problems will go away. The problems of school for instance, that if we pay more in schools, the problems will be solved,鈥 Curley said.

“The bigger the government, the more the government steps in and tells me how much sugar I can eat or when I could do this or where I could do that 鈥 But the bigger the government gets, the smaller the people get.鈥
