I think your answer here means that "freedom" is essentially a useless word in political discussions. Your definition is radically different than mine.

- marcus_holmes 10y agoIt's the same freedom we're talking about in the War Against Drugs. The freedom to kill yourself with narcotics is not something that governments are comfortable granting their citizens.
- jeffdavis 10y agoI have never heard the War on Drugs framed in terms of promoting freedom. Can you give an example?
- marcus_holmes 10y agoit isn't. It's a restriction on freedom imposed by governments because allowing people to kill themselves with narcotics is not a freedom that governments are comfortable with.
