won't we someday accept the following words, "For the good of the country....Free Speech can no longer be as free"?

Define we.

I would think some may, many won't.

Makes one wonder which amendment should have been the first.

Amendment I
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.

Amendment II
A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.

as recently as the 1970s the government had . . . wage and price controls
. . . which are nothing but censorship, since money is only information.
