Huh?

Have you watched ANY documentaries on Germany, the USSR, or China?

Watch even just one, it will bring you into the reality of just how free we really are.

I forget which documentary I was watching, it was something in a South American country.

Anyhow, I wouldn’t want to live third world but for whatever reason as I watched, it made me realize how much freedom we lack here in the USA.

Some were in neighborhoods and had a pig, chickens yada. Some women made little cakes and sold them (all sorts little things, can’t recall all)

It just made me think as these things came up—we couldn’t do that, zoning, we couldn’t to this without this permit, that permit, this license, that license, inspections—you name it.

Like I said, some of that I wouldn’t want at all—but the point that got me— was that they can and I knew that we can’t.

We sure give up many freedoms to be ‘civilized’.

Fixed it. ;)

Just teasing. I'm not saying we're Nazi Germany. But geez, look how far we've fallen in a generation. We're by far, the most imprisoned nation on the planet. We're all terrified of committing some offense we don't even know about. Look @ the airport. Now, our President claims the authority to declare American citizens "enemies" and have them summarily killed. And it barely raises an eyelash among the sheeple! I'd say that's pretty much "game over" for our Constitutional protections.
