I would happily trade many of the increases in standard of living to regain our freedom. It's not enough to have a good standard of living, if you must live in constant oppressive fear of the abject tyranny imposed upon us. And make no mistake, that's where we are in this country. It might be subjectively considered better than most others, but that's just a way of saying our shit stinks less.
- Dig1t 4y agoPersonally, I agree with you about freedoms. I value personal freedoms very highly and would be happy to trade comfort and safety for more of them. Obviously the majority of people, especially on this site, are not going to share that same value. Most people just value a comfy life and don't mind trading their (and others) individual freedoms for it. >that's where we are in this country Unfortunately it seems to be where everyone ends up in all developed societies. The US is an aberration because it is so young.
