The Strategic Libertarian Case For Supporting Hillary Clinton

[Madison320]

If Trump were to win, they would give him some time to claim ownership of the economy before the Fed popped the stock market and started unraveling things. Donald would go to his Keynesian playbook, spend his ass off, negative interest rates, etc., but the economy would still be dead in 2020 when Elizabeth Warren or some similar piece of $#@! promises to ride in and save the day. Boobus will eat it up.

Every "news" story would talk about the Failure of Capitalism! Despite the fact that A) the crash was baked in the cake and B) Hillary is Socialism but Trump is Socialism Lite.

I could be wrong, but I want the crash to occur on Hillary's watch.

Plus my investments depend on government continuing to do the wrong thing.

Online content is just so shitty and getting shittier with time.

The author addresses the reasons it might not work. I have a lot of respect this author, who is anti-immigration, anti-cuckservatism, anti-SJW, for thinking this through so thoroughly.

I don't agree with the conclusion, though. People are way over-thinking things if they conclude that voting for evil is going to make them more free.

There is a certain logic to it, and I once leaned that way myself. Looking at history though, the liberal strategy of incrementalism has been incredibly successful, and 8 years of Obama only made things more difficult. Not to mention, when things collapse the people in power generally get to decide how you're going to rebuild.

The Strategic Case for Supporting Madame Doomsday, Because One Despises the Grassroots So Much

The choice of the grassroots, populist, alternative or outsider movement in this election, Trump, is demonized by the inflexible remnants of the thrice defeated Paul supporters, who prefer to make the perfect the enemy of the good. While the concept that Hillary will over reach is good in theory (yes, a Hillary White House would lead to the GOP gaining a filibuster proof Senate in 2018, when a lot of vulnerable Democratic seats will be at take), in reality, we have plain run out of time.

The Hillary gambit represents a complete loss of the sense of urgency the Paul movement had in 2007, when it was widely agreed our country only had a couple of election cycles left to reverse things before martial law was imposed or the globalists won. A Hillary Presidency in 2017 going forward means she will pack the Supreme Court with liberal activists for a generation, who once in place will eliminate acknowledgment of the 2nd amendment protections on individual gun ownership (say hello, gun grabs). It will mean the passage of the TPP and similar globalist trade deals, and the continuation of Obamacare. It also means the continuation of nation-building and regime change in a foreign policy of one no-exit long war after another, for at least another generation.

It is one thing to assert that both Trump and Clinton do not satisfy us as libertarians, quite another to quietly declare that an ongoing activist Supreme Court, lost gun rights, global big government via the TPP, Obamacare, and unending foreign empire-building doesn't matter. It is simply dishonest to assert there is no difference between Trump and Hillary, when one has plainly expressed being for these things, and the other has not.

Because of the issue of the takeover of the courts and the adoption of global treaties, electing Hillary (or her rigging a win) means the irreversible loss of whatever is left of the free republic. There won't be a next time, under Hillary, to swing things back. It's now or never, to pull out of the death spiral.

When I referred to crash, I meant WW3 and nuclear winter. Wikileaks confirmed that they new Hillary wants to start a war with Russia.

Well if that is the case.. all you really need to survive is a few palletes of cigarettes, a few hundred gallons of water, a weapon and ammo. You can trade the cigs for food, women and bodygaurds haha.

I couldn't vote for Hillary in good conscience, but it makes as much sense as voting for Trump, and doesn't have the added disadvantage that a Trump win would pull the GOP further to the left.

We officially go over the falls if she is elected.

The question is, is that a bad thing or a good thing?
