Americans are viewing the chains that bind them to the plantation floor and are rationalizing their loss of liberty. “At least we have food, a roof over our heads and the State gives us medical care. These chains aren’t that bad...”
In the end, the food will be wormy, the roof will leak, and the medical care consists of forced calisthenics every morning in front of your communal hut. After that you go work in the collective garden so you can get your soy-lent green soup for lunch.
At least government is taking care of us. What would we do without them?
