The Audacity of Doing Nothing
Dear Libertarian Types (of which I consider myself one)<p>Please stop arguing against the Obama strategy.  There’s nothing you can do to stop it and its failure (if it does fail) will make your point better than if you wrote a billion blog posts.  Beyond that if he does succeed you could write a billion blog posts saying he was wrong and they aren’t going to convince people.<p>One way or the other it’s out of your hands.<p><i>More importantly</i>...you have a bigger problem.  Right now there are a lot of people out there arguing that libertarian principles got us into this mess.  That is simply not the case and arguing against that is where you should be putting your effort.  Because assuming President Obama does fail you’ll want people to be open to libertarian principles in the future.<p>Fiscal policy is like a game of chess right now and you should be looking three moves down and not at the very next encounter (which you already lost almost 3 months ago)<p>Sincerely,<p>Tom
