Without morality, there can be no liberty. Without liberty, there can be no responsiblity.

In our world, that means morality is whatever the government says it means. That, my friend, is the essence of totalitarianism.

Your above italicized message in the first paragaraph is anarchy.

No, it's freedom, just as the Founding Fathers intended.

So that means that if you(bassmaner) lives by a "moral" code and just one other person decides to independently live under your "moral code", your definition of "morals" must change because your "moral code" is unique to you(bassmaner). Your(bassmaner's) moral code is the essence of anarchy(i.e I(bassmaner) make up my own moral code).

Huh, I don't remember reading the "Anarchy of the United States" as the Constitution.
