RE: Politics: The Path To Slavery
Pay yer taxes and pay for your own rope, or be attacked and poor until it all collapses..
People still want freedom, but not prepared to pay the price...The hardship.
A spoiled, decadent, soft generation... or 2..
I don't think it's that they fear the price of liberty, but that they prefer the illusion that someone else is paying the price of government without bothering to see how we are all plundered and restricted.
Individual liberty and individual responsibility go together. You cannot have the first without the second. That is one of the primary problems we have as people who refuse to be ruled by others. The vast majority of people refuse to accept the individual responsibility required to have individual liberty. Is it possible to coexist with such people? I don't think it is.
