Scary, but you may be correct.

Socialism is not compatible with human nature.

When you fight human nature you will lose bigly.

Our nature is to be free, work hard to provide well for our families, and when able, to be charitable to friends and even strangers.

It is not our nature to labor under the hobnailed boot of government oppression just so we can provide for those who will not work.

Alms for the infirm, nothing for bureaucratic thieves or the lazy.

I think the issue of right vs left captures the essence of Satan vs God. You’re right, we are meant to be productive and free and free to do the good we wish. I believe that is God’s will for mankind. However, Satan thinks that more good can be accomplished through the use of force.

Forcing people to be good is the world’s way. It’s what the world’s religions and philosophies have in common vs the Judeo-Christian faith.

However, liberals think that this type of goodness is too slow to accomplish the good they desire and they think more good can be accomplished through government coercion being run by bureaucrats, whose job is to decide what is the most good.

That’s why I think libertarianism is God’s will for man. As much freedom as can be given, with only as much government coercion as needed to keep society stable and minimizing violence without having police on every street corner.
