What exactly constitutes "freedom"? Is it the ability to do what you want whenever you want? Is it what is given to you on birth, or something that must be earned as a reward by being a good person? Does everyone that doesn't have freedom deserve freedom? Do some people who have freedom not deserve it? Do YOU have freedom?

Try to keep this one clean, fellas.

I have freedom that's restricted by money, and most laws.

And my job......and the pressures of friends.....and a few contracts/leases......damn, I'm not free at all.

Which is why anarcho-communism is so great. Freedom is control over your own life. Oppression is denying others freedom. Thus, protesting is freedom, but murder isn't.

anarchy will never work, there will always be gullible masses and power hungry leaders to thwart attempts at that. And we all saw how the USSR ended up...

I agree, how do you fire the army, navy, police, prison stafff, coast guard, and air force without them getting mad? What prevents them from using the guns inappropriately?
