Our “profit” is not measured in dollars, but in “freedom”
It's easy to say that when your pockets are loaded.
John Lennon was kind of the same. Dreaming and preaching after he financially succeeded with the Beatles.
But please don't get me wrong. I'm not judging you nor I envy you.
You're a genius and you did a great job with your projects.
Just want you to know that 99% of people are struggling and stumbling and have different priorities in their life. Check the Venezuelan guys on Leofinance for instance. The monthly salary is $2. I'm sure they put profit in dollars on top of their list.
Again. Please stay around and engage with the community here.
If ye love wealth better than liberty,
the tranquility of servitude
better than the animating contest of freedom,
go home from us in peace.
We ask not your counsels or your arms.
Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you.
May your chains set lightly upon you,
and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen."
and what about the freedom to build wealth oneself?
To be allowed to improve one's own situation?
without the agreeing of authority, without asking to permission to survive?
So you want some weird freedom but if I want to JUST BE ABLE TO SURVIVE - I'm against freedom?
wtf are you even talking?
I think you should read some more books first before telling others what to do if one "love wealth better than liberty"
“The argument for liberty is not an argument against organization, which is one of the most powerful tools human reason can employ, but an argument against all exclusive, privileged, monopolistic organization, against the use of coercion to prevent others from doing better.”
― Friedrich August von Hayek
