One would indeed be dictating terms to a craven USA. So you leave the Barbary pirates alone, and later Germany, or the Soviets to expand unhindered, and militant Islam, and China, with control of the trade routes, and countries we depend upon.
By the same mentality, you eliminate police, the FBI, etc. (though not sanctioning all that such has done).
After all, the world and all the US population will behave themselves like the self-sufficient libertarian isolationist (at war with another), or the elite liberal, as both are have with the same delusion.
I am all for smaller government, and for being God and self-governed (and reliant), but I know the insofar as men and nations are not thus controlled from within by yielding to God and Godly conscience, they must be controlled from without.
The problems arise insofar as government is not controlled thusly from within, and thus persecutes those who are.
That’s one of the dumbest exercises in bad logic I’ve seen. Maybe you should study up on logical fallacies instead of specializing in them.
