  1. God gave us freedom, people steal it in the name of politics.


  2. Ah Freedom! Now here is a big question!

    First we must define freedom and it's limits, if indeed it has any!

    It has been said that ones freedom ends where another's begins, this seem quite an acceptable concept!

    However now we have set the boundaries of freedom now we must distribute the valued commodity!

    In a fair and just world this commodity (a very interesting word when looked into profoundly!) would be given in equal parts with each person owning equal shares (another interesting word) of such a thing!

    Of course in today's world, which is modelled by the market of stocks and shares and the ownership of commodities!

    We are forced by the virtual concept of monetary economy to market freedom! "Freedom Fries" (oh what a poly-significant expression that is!)

    Today the freedom of many, in fact the majority, depends on the decisions of the board! Rather than the just and natural rights of each person!



    So in the case of "Those who deny freedom to others...

    deserve it not for themselves." The deeper question begs "How many in this world today truly deserve Freedom?" And "Do those who control this Global commodity deserve the right to have the freedom to do so!"

    If a person does not value a god given gift, does that person merit such a gift?

    Here I would draw the reader to the connection that exists between Freedom (the state of being free) and Free will (the ability to chooses freely) and I will ask if such a thing as free will exists, or is it in fact nothing more than the concept of Will described by Schopenhauer (see first link)

    “Everyone believes himself a priori to be perfectly free, even in his individual actions, and thinks that at every moment he can commence another manner of life. … But a posteriori, through experience, he finds to his astonishment that he is not free, but subjected to necessity, that in spite of all his resolutions and reflections he does not change his conduct, and that from the beginning of his life to the end of it, he must carry out the very character which he himself condemns….”



    Or even worse are we all nothing other than products of the necessity of those who control the market? And by being so, are we, in accepting the status Quo of the global market economy, denying not only our own free will to chose to have freedom, but also aiding and abetting those who steal the freedom of others by using their monetary might!, and in so doing ourselves are we not not denying freedom to others... and therefore do we deserve it for ourselves?

    Panem et Circenses partus ex ruina. et Sic Semper Tyrannis

    Ops Populus et humananitas in veritas partus ex libertas





    Who trully deserves freedom are those who trully value it as a communality not as a commodity!
