Lobbying government is part of the process humans go through with respect to the state aparatus.
I find it hard to imagine people stopping to do this, even the ones who agree with you on shrinking government intervention.

Lobbying them to stop lobbying is quite obviously pushing your moralistic view onto them.
I find this to be a waste of time, as the response will be them pushing their moralistic view onto you.

You're describing reality as it is. I hear what you're saying. You're saying it's simply how things are and want me to face it. I am with you there.
But I do believe there are people who truly care about freedom in its true sense, so it's very important to keep talking about what ought to be.
