We're in a car. The people we let drive the car aren't too keen on keeping the car on the road as they're busy milling in the back of the car, handing out whisky and hors d'oeuvres. I'm sitting in the back, telling everyone that hey, we're going to crash if we don't get someone to drive the car correctly and I'm being shouted at to shut up because the song on the radio is SOOOOOO good.
Enough people in the United States now desire services more than they value freedom that simply 'switching drivers' isn't really a viable strategy. Sure, the other driver isn't going to hand out as much booze and the finger sandwiches will be smaller, but that doesn't provide us a steady path to drive on.
Those of us who are liberty minded see this. We know our economy is not going to sustain itself with all the entitlements the government is handing out. The relationship between the government and citizen has forever changed with this latest monstrosity of health control. Things have been bad for a long time, it's just very obvious now.
The problem is that there are still a lot of other people in the car with me who can see what is about to happen. I just don't know if there's enough of us to stop it. It's hard to convince people that the free drinks and food aren't worth it.
