There are FREEDOM Givers and FREEDOM takers. In this discussion of REAL FREEDOM we will explore this phenomenon. Remember this is a conversation, and your opinions matter. So express them.
FREEDOM Givers, and Takers live at opposite ends of the spectrum. This is just “what is” and through interaction and observation of PRINCIPLES “what is” makes itself clear. Always.
For our discussion today we will look at FREEDOM Takers first. If the word “FREEDOM Taker” has a negative effect feel free to substitute FREEDOM controller, or FREEDOM overseer, or FREEDOM decider. There are perhaps many more terms that would or could apply, and a justification for all could be made.
For today we have chosen FREEDOM Taker as a simple way to describe “what is.” We will distinguish FREEDOM Takers as those that believe FREEDOM is something that needs to be taken, controlled, overseen or decided for a general population, and then given back in proper measure as a specific group of controllers, overseers, or deciders see fit. Simple.
The premise here is that people do not have the ability to govern themselves and will not make the appropriate choices that are best for all. There is instead a special group that will make the decisions for everyone and they are not freely chosen by the untrustworthy populace.
Although there may be, and mostly is some appearance of choice through manipulated elections and propaganda, everyone knows that “they” will stay in charge and not to worry as “they” have our better good in mind and “they” will make decisions for all of us. In fact “they” have TAKEN FREEDOM from the common people, and their premise is that it’s for the better good.
FREEDOM GIVERS, on the other hand could also be called FREEDOM seekers, FREEDOM sharers, or FREEDOM believers. FREEDOM GIVERS actually believe FREEDOM belongs to people by virtue of being a person. Their main purpose is to see that as much of that FREEDOM remains with the people as possible.
Perfect? No, not by any means as FREEDOM GIVERS have also been power grabbers, oppressors, and self serving throughout the world and throughout time.
However, as this group comes into power they continually choose to set people free, vote for, and fight for more and more FREEDOM for all. Look at all modern FREEDOM GIVING governments and their evolution toward FREEDOM giving throughout time.
The basic premise here is the PRINCIPLE by which each of these groups operate. Do they seek to TAKE, control, oversee or decide for others, or GIVE, seek, share, and believe that FREEDOM belongs to the people?
One last consideration is that FREEDOM Givers actually freely “give” FREEDOM to FREEDOM Takers as a mater of principle and the more power the Takers get the more FREEDOM is Taken. Another discussion for another day.
Are you a FREEDOM Giver or Taker? You decide.
