But just like freedom...Free Republic isn’t free.
The question is simple. Is the value received worth the cost?
The price of freedom is eternal vigilance! Now we see what can happen when the price went unpaid. Was the price of freedom to high? Perhaps the value received was not worth the price.
The price of my freedom cost lives. Surely asking me for my eternal vigilance is not asking too much of me if life can be the price of freedom.
