No one hates freedom more than Americans do.

@Example @freepatriot no, it's the public that let them get away with that in a free market.
If there was a free press, it would have exposed these anti consumer practices, and if the public was educated, they would have voted with their dollars.
Like with xbox one... real journalism let everyone to know the Xbox one was a spy device and a terrible console, BEFORE it launched... people voted with their dollars and Sony reigned..

The very same Americans who scream that they hate the police state then turn around and support the police.
WTF?
No one hates freedom more than Americans do.
Americans voluntarily choose to work at a job for a wage and then turn around and scream that they are helpless and exploited victims because there is only one company in the world and you can't quit, start a business, or learn a new skill.
You can't really be sure man has been to the moon, but you can be sure that the World Trade Center is no longer standing.
Americans scream that you cannot possibly have a society without high taxes, but why could the USA have a civilization and low taxes in 1920?
Americans say that you cannot have morals without tyranny, but why could the US have morality and freedom in 1950?
People can say fuck the world when they are 100, but what if you are 40?
The very same Americans who scream that they hate the police state then turn around and support the police.

We need personal responsibility and the free market.
You don't get freedom by becoming Communist.

@freepatriot Side note: the free market also led to monopolies like Microsoft getting away with anti-consumer practices. What can stop them is * government intervention and redistribution of wealth, among other regulations that apply to large coroporations.
