The recent financial crisis is an example of what happens when there is too much government.
That's a weird assessment. The situation is as bad as it is in the US exactly because there was TOO LITTLE government. Had the US gov stepped up earlier to properly protect its citizens, the mess would be far less bad than it is now.
I've never heard the "too much government" as a cause for the recent financial crisis. Any sources, perhaps? Genuinely interested.
