This is an accusation that is often flug at Libertarians. Instead of denying it, I can confirm that it is absolutely TRUE. Fact is, I do agree with James Madison's view of Democracy, which is that "it is the most vile form of government".
And of course he's correct in that the inevitable results of pure democracy are mob-rule, socialism, plunder, subjugation of the minority, and a total abandonment of the non-aggression principle (sometimes leading to war or genocide). I mean, just look at Zimbabwe and South Africa for starters. Fucking hellholes!!
Me, I would MUCH prefer a benevolent dictatorship lead by a coalition of the uber-wealthy elites, perhaps with Gary Johnson serving as a figurehead. "King Gary" or "Emperor for life Johnson" sounds a HELL of a lot better to me than President Hillary Clinton (*shudder*)
BTW, as far as our new dictator's "benevolence" goes, I only mean there would be no mass murdering in the oligarchy. Unlike socialist dictatorships, under which the State usually kills millions. Directly. Indirect deaths (those due to starvation) would likely be similar. Or perhaps even greater. Due to our new oligarchic overlords abolishing ALL welfare.
The result being that millions of worthless Takers would (given their refusal to work) bite it. Or, as Ayn Rand said (in regards to the poor man) "If he does not choose to live, nature will take its course". Ha ha ha ha! Perfect!
If that utopia ever came about? It would SURELY cause me great joy to hear the news of the day. Because the top story would likely be a report on how bodies of worthless poor people were collected and incinerated that day. Of course it wouldn't go on for too long. Sooner or later the US would purged of it's parasite infestation. And that would be a day to par-tay! Emperor Johnson would likely declare a national holiday.
