    Wouldn't the analogy be that we are the servants to the state, as the state tells you what you can or can't do?
    • toomuchtodo 9y ago
      No, because we have the right to vote, making the state the servant to us. Whether we have properly executed that responsibility is clearly a discussion for a different thread.

        You have the right not to use online services...the right to vote is not a declaration of submission. Particularly when you voted against and a measure was still infringed upon you.
