What is Freedom?
Does the average person really experience freedom? Are we free or "free"??

What is Freedom?

To be free, would mean in the sense of being free from all limitations... death, life, time, matter..... beyond good and evil in the old skool tense..... Ain Sophia sort of stuff :P

Does the average person really experience freedom?

Freedom to choose within a limited bunch of scenerios.

Are we free or "free"??

I charge by the hour, but do freebies for the right chick - I turn cheap tricks, but that don't make me free.

No such thing as 'true freedom'...but more free than most people in other countries! I'm happy with that for now.

I'd like to live self-sufficiently in the future, but will I really be free then? I doubt it.

We're free to make choices, but most of the choices we make aren't based around freedom...

Nobody is free in this world. What we have, even under the piles of legislation telling how/when to collect your dog's poo etc, is relative (no pun intended) freedom that most other countries would envy - or die for - if they got the chance to experience it.

I used to think anarchy and freedom wrere similar, but really anarchy is just a good t-shirt.

Anarchy is the only way.
