Freedom is not "Freedom to......." It is about "Freedom from...." Oppression mostly and everything that follows. So you have to be careful how you throw the word around in some places..
@whowasthatmaskedman Great food for thought. Seems that idea is eroding away as of late. Too many people crave a dictatorship and being controlled. Sheep willing to go for the slaughter.

@Grateful4you Its a cost/benefit analysis. Look at what Western Capitalism has bought us. And the cost. The old system worked for the winners up to now. But there are no more continents to be plundered and the time has come to look for a model that doesnt require us to keep growing economies or we will be consuming your own future.

@whowasthatmaskedman My freedom sir began with the realization that... There remains nothing I [i]have[/i] to do but simply be. ❤

@Trippin Quite True. But your being has consequences. And those have to be accepted. Being a zebra in Africa has similar consequences. How the Zebra manages those determines what happens to it. Thats where the options come in.
@whowasthatmaskedman Or mahaps become the "United States of China" Unlikely but...

@Trippin Loved this comment. Simply being is harder than most would believe.
