we are slaves in the USA in 2009!! there is no freedom anymore,, you must work (SLAVE) for someone else to live in usa .
we must work, starve or seek charity. those are the options. those have always been the options. effort brings a chance of success and indolence brings poverty and death, these too have been constants since the beginnings of man. the creation of wealth brings with it the possibility of charity so that those unable to provide for themselves may be given aid, but only effort can create that wealth. somebody's gotta do it. if not you then who?
delusionsofNORMALity Reviewed by delusionsofNORMALity on . are we to be free? with all the talk of socialism in america and the growing governmental control over our relatively free marketplace, i feel the need to ask those of you on these boards a rather basic question. is the individual an important component of american political philosophy or is the will of the people of paramount concern? this country has always led the world in its pursuit of the rights of the individual, understanding that the price we pay for those rights is a tumultuous life at best. as Rating: 5
