When I was growing up in the 1950s as a boy the Libertarian point of view always made the most sense to me.
It is founded upon self respect, individualism, self discipline and responsibility. And it also falls in line with natural selection. In other words if you were not intelligent and strong and physically strong and self discipined you likely weren't going to live very long anyway.
This is what the United States was founded upon and unless you had someone to work to take care of you (including yourself) you just died and that's all.
However, then the Great Depression happened and the Social Welfare state was born so those who just died horribly didn't always die anymore
Is a social welfare state a good thing or a bad thing?
Well. Those that would have otherwise died probably like it a lot.
However, then the negative side for society has to also be considered if we want to be realistic here.
For example, A social welfare state institutionalizes people who multi-generationally may not work or contribute to society in any useful way. They might, for example, grow up to be criminals because of never having seen a family member do an honest days work in their lives.
The other problem with a social welfare state is that it allows people to breed who are ill or infirm thereby lessening the genetic pool of a nation and making it more vulnerable in times of war where there may not be enough strong and healthy young men and women to fight to protect the country from being overrun by another country or countries.
But, in some ways if you live in a state with Nuclear weapons this doesn't appear to be any longer true. Because ANY nation using nuclear weapons will likely cause people in all nations to die somewhat or completely.
And the very first to die likely would be those genetically not capable of surviving radiation or not physically capable of surviving something like that.
So, I have looked at all these things as a responsible adult and so sometimes I still think for the long term survival of the human race (at least inside the U.S.) that Libertarianism based upon self discipline, being responsible, which also causes genetically strong people capable of defending their nation in times of war might be the best outcome at present in this overpopulated confused world we live in.
It may not seem the most kind way to be but it might be the only way humans in the U.S. can survive for centuries now no matter what they face.
In some ways I think Global Warming and global Climate change is now going to kill a lot of people who aren't smart enough or intelligent enough or capable enough to survive these things and we wind up in the same place in the end that our founding father's created with this Libertarian founded nation of the people, by the people and for the people.
In otherwords, if people aren't smart enough to move before they die from something caused by Global Warming or Global Climate change they aren't going to be around anyway worldwide.
Once again Global Warming creates the law of the jungle and survival of the fittest here on earth. So, it is very unlikely the world is going to die of overpopulation and much more likely this century that most people under 60 will die from Global Climate change in some form if they die before 60.
Note: This is one of the problems of being a precognitive psychic: I tend to generalize and not be specific enough. IN the above idea of people dying before 60 from Global Warming to be more specific this kind of thing will not become the norm until the 2040s or 2050s at this point. But, unless something major changes we wind up with 3.5 billion people or less by 2100 here left alive on earth.
So, the number who die are going to be almost 5 billion to 7 to 10 billion people by 2100 to wind up with 3.5 Billion or less left alive in 2100 (depending upon how countries handle things between now and then).
For example, self driving cars and trucks potentially could kill millions of men who presently drive vehicles around the world who cannot find other jobs just within the next 20 years or so.
