"The Immorality of Voting Liberal or Semi-Liberal"

After numerous conversations with very conservative Christians, who all seem far to willing to vote for the 'most electable candidate' or the man 'most likely to beat Obama' it became apparent that some more time was needed to be put into thinking about just why that doesn't make sense as a Christian.

Because I am a student of economics that is where my mind first wandered, and since most of the opposition candidates is trying their best to convince everyone they are pro-life, and anti-gay marriage, the two big issues to conservative Christians this election cycle, economics is a different path to moral issues I thought would be fun. So here goes:

Voting Liberal or Semi-Liberal is voting for murder. Not in the pro-life 'abortion is murder' stance, but in the very real 'young man gets shot defending his country in another country that has no plan nor ability to attack us on a military scale' sense.

You might be saying to yourself, 'But it's Republicans that get us in those wars, so isn't it conservatives?'. First the answer is no, and no, we got in WW2 and Vietnam under democrats, and George Bush can easily be described as 'semi-liberal'. So why is voting liberal going to lead us to war?

It's pretty simple, liberals love spending tax money, and borrowed money, in a form of stimulus or just buying votes for that matter. War is simply stimulus and death combined, a massive economic boost when you follow the teachings of John Maynard Keynes, and Thomas Malthus. Keynes of course being the proponent of government spending its way out of recession, and Malthus being the man who envisioned the human population increased to the limit of our resources and man living at the brink of starvation and misery until population was brought back down to size. Of course war, starvation, birth control and delayed marriage(back then unwed mothers were quite uncommon, relatively speaking), were all natural ways of keeping the population in check.

If you look at the modern followers, many of them often not even knowing who their philosophical forefathers were, you will see the majority of liberal institutions such as Green Peace, Planned Parenthood(originally a group designed to cull the herd of minorities and poor in America – Read Margret Sanger's own works before you call me a liar), and the Democrat party hold Keynsian and Malthusian belief systems at heart. It wasn't all that long ago that Nancy Pelosi called unemployment benefits a stimulus and good for the economy. If you buy that then stop reading now, this is obviously going to be too logical and difficult for you to understand, and I don't want you holding me responsible for the following migraine.

Now that the stage has been set, the assertion liberalism and semi-liberalism are murder, and the philosophical/economic foundation for that assertion broadly explained, let's tie the two together for the conclusion.

Liberals and semi-liberals love huge government spending, when an economy goes bad they believe that stimulus is the way to go(Keynes), it is often unpopular to just throw money out at people because you risk being called a Marxist, or Socialist depending on how informed the accuser is, it is often easier to find a reason for war, there always is one somewhere, and the government gets to spend tons of money to fight it, they also get to cut down the population(soldiers killed – Malthus), thus creating the perceived double whammy of economic growth! Thus voting for the liberal(Obama, Clinton, LBJ, FDR) who claims to hate war, but likes Malthus and/or Keynes is to support their eventual policies, and the eventual deaths of people other than yourself, preferably younger and poorer than yourself. Voting Semi-Liberal(Bush, Bush, Ford, Nixon) on the other hand gets you the same results with a lot more talk about patriotism and American Exceptionalism. I do believe in American Exceptionalism, and I love it, I just don't believe what we should be most exceptional at is killing and being killed. It not what our founders envisioned, and its not exactly what their, or your Christian beliefs hold either.
