What makes you think we are still free in this country? It is still the best this world has to offer, but we are far from being free.

Take these into consideration:

Are you by law required to wear seat-belts in cars?
Do you have to pay taxes to fund representation that does not exist?
Do you have to pay tax to buy things after you money has been taxed to pay for more representation that does not exist?
Do you have to pay tax on the property you might own someday?
Do you have to work like a dog most of your life because you are required to pay taxes?
Are you tracked by Yahoo, Google, your local library, IRS, AT&T, and your Internet provider?

That's just a start. Seems to me the freedom that the country was founded on and many fought for is gone.

Who the hell said we were free? Certainly not me.
