4. did you have any thoughts

about the actual substance of the post, perchance?


Between the strong and the weak,
between the rich and the poor,
between master and servant,
it is liberty that oppresses
and the law that sets free.


It's just that one man's opinion, as stated. I agree with it. You don't seem to have bothered to read it.


Freedom is slavery.
I think I've read that somewhere before. Only it wasn't the "good guys" saying it. Well, at least not from my point of view.


I'll bet those guys also said, at some time, "the sky is blue".

But that's by the bye. Because I didn't actually say "freedom is slavery". I said:

His point was that freedom really is slavery, if your neighbour has the freedom to oppress you because you are weaker, and to exploit you because you are poorer.

But don't you be letting the truth or facts of the situation get in the way of how you wish to represent it.

And now, me and my thoughts will be going home for a little pork tenderloin florentine, if it's all the same with you.
