    Is there anyone who genuinely believes that working for basic needs is freedom?

      I imagine the people who actually think about how they are working just for basic needs are mostly a different group of people than those yelling about freedom.

      I don’t know how many conservatives wake up in the morning with the feeling that everything they do is just to make some rich guy richer until they eventually die. Because why would they be a conservative at that point?

      I don’t think anyone does. When people talk about freedom, they talk about being able to travel, do whatever they want in their spare time, say whatever they believe, buy a gun and a hummer, go BASE jumping.

      That kinda stuff.
