But I will point out that the Left is very consistent about "re-purposing" vocabulary.
"liberal" used to mean free enterprise, with little risk of government interference. Today, "Liberal" means lots of government interference in everything.
"Freedom of Church and State" used to mean the government should leave churches alone. Today, "Freedom of Church and State" means religion should not play a role in political decisions or government policies.
My post (in part) was pointing out that many Americans think "Freedom" means they are entitled to do anything and have anything they want -- it's a free country, man! Europeans are usually pretty blunt that in a Free Society you shouldn't have to worry about food, housing, or basic necessities.
I think the real meaning of "Freedom" has been lost, but I think "Liberty" is still valid. Thomas Jefferson would still support "Liberty", IMO.
True.
