Give me liberty or give me death! Why not both?
- claytongulick 4y agoLiberty carries risks, but most people understand that the promise of safety in a nanny-state is a lie. You have the same (if not more) risks but have lost your personal liberty to boot. The social contract has always been a balancing act between the most benefit for the most people, and the ability to enjoy life as you see fit. I find it disheartening how "cool" it has become in recent times to attack the fundamental concept of liberty. It's like, folks feel like it's ok to reverse hundreds of years of progress on liberalism just as long as it's their tribe that's in charge.
