In the United States political system, BOTH parties favor considerable government involvement; the difference is in which areas the parties perfer more (and less) government involvement.
Generally speaking, the Democratic Party favors more economic regulation and government involvement in economic (and social welfare) programs. It generally opposes government involvement in civil liberties areas (i.e. much less regulation on individual social choices).
The Republic Party is (mostly) the opposite - it tends to favor lower levels of government regulation and involvement in economic activities, while advocating significantly more government regulation of individual civil (social) activities.
However, both parties have shown they are heavily in favor of increased government surveliance for "national security" purposes, which generally means strengthening the government's ability to intrude into everyday life at the government's (sole) discretion.
