Three points
1. The second Golden Rule- those who who have the gold make the rules. If you
don't have economic freedom, how can you have personal freedom?
2. Quit feeding the moochers
3. Self esteem starts with a child being able to read and write and extends through an individual earning their own economic support.

Ah, you must believe our philosopher kings give a damn about freedom, personal or economic.

        And this free hit of self-esteem will, of course, include a free cell phone, right?

If we could only get the moochers to understand (and care) about that. Do you have any ideas on how we might conquer that foible?
