That said, the problem is that if the system collapses (and I agree that it might), they will have the power to impose a draconian authoritarian regime immediately, combined with waves of permitted random violence carried out by Obama's faithful, and we will begin to experience the joys of living in Zimbabwe.

I wish people would quite talking in fear of violence carried out by Obambi's faithful. If they start it, we'll finish it and it will be a decidedly sudden finish. We have a second amendment for a reason, and that reason ain't huntin'. Tyranny will be met with strong, deadly force, as the founders intended.

But let THEM start it. If we can starve the beast enough, it's followers will also have to go hungry. They're not going to like the idea of their social programs (free handouts) being reduced to nothing.
"We can live without their money, but they can't live without ours." Our cooperation (voluntary slavery) is absolutely necessary for THEM to survive.

I think it's a real possibility, but that said, I'm not afraid of it. I think it would be highly unpleasant (to put it mildly) and certainly a major destabilizing factor, but it would just be one aspect of the strategy.
