I'm not so sure there was ever a land of the "free." Land of the freak, maybe.

And I'm not convinced that govt's are necessary; they seem to be exactly the opposite.

It seems that I would have liked Joe very much.

I do think that if we can ever really understand that we CAN have exactly what it is that we desire in the way of a country, we need only build it. As I have decided to keep as my motto: Resist Not Evil: Work Around It.

"Some libertarians reckon that the average American now works nearly half the year for the state."

The state "owned" by national debt The People in debt bondage from high housing costs.

The Path to "The Land of the Free" is a society organized to enable "The People" to build high quality, low cost, energy (wood fiber insulation) efficient, multi-generational size, universal design (handicap and old age accessible) homes to replace substandard housing and create new free standing communities built with lumber they sawmill for themselves from the "free" trees they had planted as children and from the "free" trees planted within the "all hands on deck" worldwide initiative to reforest the planet to use up some of the "free" CO2 in the atmosphere..

Golden Age houses, for New Age Community, that are sold and rented without the cost factor of interest and under terms of trust that keep this housing perpetually affordable with the land portion, as it is paid off, then under land trust terms forever "free" for use for affordable housing location for "The People".

Enlightened self interest free enterprise, at scale, working to free up the time that is needed to be put into the Work of FREEDOM.
