Europeans have LBJs idea of “Freedom” — “Freedom from work” “Freedom of vacations” “Freedom to have the State supply all your need” “Freedom to have countrywide tantrums if you don’t make my life easy.”
We saw how well that worked for Greece...
Yeah, just like 47% of Americans!
Freedom to have the State supply all your need
The State also decides exactly “What” you need.
Remember the government that has the power to give you what you need also has the power to take away everything you have.
