  1. That's why most conservatives and libertarians vote Republican, even though they're not that different from the Democrats. I don't agree with anybody on everything, but I'm closer to Ron Paul than damn near anybody else. Democrats have been bad news pretty much since FDR, who used every crisis at his disposal to make the people think government was the solution to all problems and the source of their well-being. Now, 70 or 80 years later, we're seeing the real fruits of that abandonment of self-responsible freedom for the apparent blank check from the U.S. Treasury. Now, we're $31 trillion in debt, which is about $90,000 for every man, woman and child and $250,000 for every man and woman who actually PAYS federal taxes. The price of that false security? OBEDIENCE.

  2. The inordinate fear of death by The Latest Threat prevents liberals from assessing threats and risks, rationally. COVID isn't the only thing out there that can kill you, and perfect protection against any one thing just raises the danger of all the OTHER real threats that they ignore because all they can think about is the Latest Thing. "You're gonna starve, but at least you're save from COVID! You're gonna die of cancer, but we 'saved' you from COVID. You're gonna die of vaccine side-effects, but you're safe from COVID!" They all think in terms of one variable.

  3. What should really scare liberals - and you see it already - is the thought that the federal government, to which they insisted too much power be given, should be taken over by people who disagree with them! And it's gonna happen! Look at the Trump freakout. Imagine in 50 years, when we have 2 or 3 generations of atheist liberals overtaken by God-fearing Christians and Muslims, who believe in family and are raising big families! But they WANT their nanny government. They INSIST upon it! They have created institutions that aren't answerable to the people, and it's gonna come back around and bite them along with the rest of us. It already is. I don't see any way to reduce the government under the current political milieu, so what will happen is the bureaucracy will just keep growing and becoming more and more authoritarian, until it crumbles of its own weight. The chaos that ensues will be horrific.
