That conservatives see no ownership of problems characterized as specific to their black and brown neighbors (family, selves...) is orthogonal to the issue of what to do about those issues.
Which Republicans? There are several flavors these days.
Also the question would be if reducing the area of government in question also reduced the ability of that part of the government to perform it's function; if so, than a reduction vs oversight agency is not an apples-to-apples comparison, imho.

Republicans are just as concerned about crappy government.
They just want to solve the problem with less government instead of an oversight agency.

There's several flavors of democrats. Wanting authoritarian government seems to be common to a subset of both parties.
It's like two heads of the same coin. Barely a metaphor because it's coin that holds them together.
