RE: Freedom and liberty are essential conditions for healthy and meaningful existence

in #philosophy7 years ago

Unfortunately so many humans are in cages around the world, and if you extrapolate your argument, when we are bound by the man made laws of government, we aren't truly free. Good article, freedom is an important topic of discussion.

Thank you for your input@onetree. Quite right! We are not truly free nowadays with all the legal bindings and obligations bestowed upon citizens of each country by governments and legal bodies. Hopefully, those unjust impositions and burden can be challenged and removed through democratic processes. However, it's only natural that some group of powerful people will strive to control and manipulate others for their private gains.
And clever elites will use the tools of persuasion and subtle social engineering methods to control the herds.

So, better informed people will have the noble obligation of expressing their thoughts and join in the debate for the sake of common good for humanity.
