It’s amazing the status mindsets many have been conditioned into.

I shared this Samual Adam’s quote with a FReeper today.

“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.”

Iconic quote from Adams and it applies today to the mindless folks who “trust” the gov’t with vaccines, or to those who truly believe the government has our best interests at heart when they make it next to impossible to live day-by-day with red tape and hypocritical requests that nobody could ever meet.

So-called "independent" truckers who only do jobs for one shipper, e.g. like Uber or Lyft drivers:

"If ye love wealth better than liberty"
Independent trucker: I can make more money doing jobs for one shipper

"the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom"
Independent trucker: Less paperwork and tax hassles if I do jobs for one shipper

I agree with you and that’s one of my favorite quotations!
