You're Being Controlled, and You Like It!

This post is a follow-up to my earlier post about celebrating your personal freedom.

If you're on your way to being free, congrats. If you're not on your way and you think you're free, you probably don't know how controlled you are. Of course, this doesn't apply to everyone out there. But chances are, it applies to you.

Happy Independence Day! Are you Independent?

With the country celebrating its independence, it's a perfect time to talk about about freedom and independence. As you may have overheard in school... America declared independence from tyranny over 200 years ago on July 4th. That was the short-term action. However, America wasn't free on July 4th. Just like in weight-loss, it takes time to reach the goal. It took long term commitment and determination to actually make a free society. A society where personal responsibility is of utmost importance and freedoms for everyone are the ideal goal that we hope to never fall short of.

It's been over 200 years that that long-term commitment to freedom has been declared. How free and independent are you? There's probably an easy way to measure this. Freedom is directly related to responsibility, just as light is related to visibility. The more light there is the more you can see, and so it is with responsibility.

The average American outsources so much, that they can't even change a tire without calling AAA. Should we outsource a basic need like security? Shouldn't we be allowed to provide our own security with appropriate tools?
