Brilliant article. Either we are Free or Slaves of the State.
Our “system” was to be “free” and our “Justice” system was ONLY to promote “public virtue” in the masses for Western Civ. understood since Socrates that without Virtue, you are a slave of the State.
That is why the System destroys virtue formation in children (intentionally) by Welfare—it embeds laziness and dependence on the State, as does the public school system which destroys agency and individualism (thinking for self—outside the State Box). After the age of 7, they need structured Classical Christian education (the only rational, logical type which gives a person the tools to “think critically”-—be fully human and free).
As Socrates stated, when the State controls “education” it will never “educate”, it will only make slaves for the State. The Marxists took total control of “education” (brainwashing) in the 30s—by the 70s, every single child’s mind was rotted by the system.
People, even here, don’t understand the psychology used to destroy the minds (autonomy, agency) in our children. We have to take back the Minds of children—they need unstructured time in Reality with human interactions, etc. so that they will be capable of thinking for SELF-—they have to habituate virtue in childhood (build the neurons/pathways so AGENCY is POSSIBLE!!!-—not be like tribal, feudal minds—easily controlled and only regurgitating the programmed cr@p like snowflakes and “bots” /jackboots do.
Every “homeowner” or property owner in the U.S. is a “slave” to the state. Just don’t pay your real estate taxes one year and you’ll see who owns your home or lot.
