Here in the US, we limit your hunting quota, your speed of travel, you ability
to shout "fire," the percentage of your income that you get to keep, your
ability to discriminate based on skin tone, and a million other things. So I
guess we don't have freedom either?

John, you say a lot of funny things, but surely this one is one of the richest!
The obvious reality is that the working class is being used by the wealthy
(who tend to the right) to keep them in their position of economic elite.
Since the wealthy make the laws, the laws are designed to help the wealthy. It
is a self-perpetuating system, of which the only saving grace is that it's
fairly easy in the US to climb into the wealthy bracket.

Sure there is...a dynasty of career politicians.

Crusaders, inquisitors, the mobs that chased Mormons around the midwest,
death-sentence advocates...I dunno, what?
