jojo....it saddens me also. But I gave up calling myself free in this country many years ago. It may still be the best place on the planet to live, but I don't consider myself to be free living in the U.S.. I asked myself once a long time ago after a day at work if I really felt free, if work is what I would choose to do if I were really free. My answer was no, but there is no alternative short of living homeless. It's kind of like you have to work for 8 or 10 or 12 hours, a sentence if you will, just to come home for at most 1/3 of the day to do what you really want, but by that time your often too tired or stressed to enjoy or engage in true freedom. But we have to deal with reality and just keep on pushing until we are put out to pasture.
