I believe that liberty is the only genuinely valuable thing that men have invented, at least in the field of government, in a thousand years. I believe that it is better to be free than to be not free, even when the former is dangerous and the latter safe. I believe that the finest qualities of man can flourish only in free air -- that progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress, and of no permanent value. I believe that any man who takes the liberty of another into his keeping is bound to become a tyrant, and that any man who yields up his liberty, in however slight the measure, is bound to become a slave. – H. L. Mencken	added by Normando 19 days ago
If men, through fear, fraud, or mistake, should in terms renounce or give up any natural right, the eternal law of reason and the grand end of society would absolutely vacate such renunciation. The right to freedom being the gift of Almighty God, it is not in the power of man to alienate this gift and voluntarily become a slave. – Samuel Adams	added by Normando 6 months ago
I remember feeling trapped in a cage of lust, a cycle that seemed endless. Then I faced a choice: remain a slave to my addiction, presenting a saintly facade to the world while feeling estranged from God, or break free from the chains of lust, repent, and find welcome in God's loving embrace. – Christen Kuikoua	added by ChristenKuikouafans 7 months ago
Money is a new form of slavery, and distinguishable from the old simply by the fact that it is impersonal -- that there is no human relation between master and slave. – Leo Nikolaevich Tolstoi	added by Normando 1 year ago

Eugenics is not just a tool of totalitarianism. Eugenics, as it was conceived, could not be anything but totalitarian as it desired to control all aspects of society. Hitler’s “National Socialist” (Nationalsozialist) form of government was amongst the first to put the full force of its government to conduct compulsory health initiatives. It is by no coincidence that the Dachau concentration camp used its slave-labor to run the largest organic produce farm of the era. – A.E. Samaan	added by AlvaroSiman 1 year ago
Why does The Holocaust persist in haunting our conscience? Why does it dominate the introspection of philosophers and historians alike? By the numbers alone, the murders were not unprecedented. At that juncture of 20th Century history, Stalin and Lenin had already brutally murdered tens of millions. The Holocaust fascinates not because of its numbers, but because of the means employed. At no point in time had an entire society dedicated its full might to the perpetual elimination of those unwanted elements of the population. Every aspect of Hitler’s National Socialism was geared towards cleansing and improving the breeding stock of Germania. Hitler’s National Socialist government was focused on the breeding, education, and training of a “master race.” The social, cultural, legislative, and industrial mechanisms of Hitler’s National Socialism were designed to perpetually “select” its populace. The central planners of National Socialism would “select” those that would live, those that would die, and those that would be sterilized slave labor. National Socialism was intended to have the “total” control to decide who would be allowed to procreate, and as a result, those that would be allowed to contribute to Hitler’s ideal society. – A.E. Samaan	added by AlvaroSiman 1 year ago
China has a very large pool of available manpower and it wouldn’t really make sense to use slave labor in a high-tech sector vital to their national security. – Blake Herzinger	Found on CNN 1 year ago

I look forward to working with incoming Natural Resources Chairman Bruce Westerman and my colleagues on fixing our permitting problems to secure our energy future, our efforts as Republicans to onshore our mineral supply chains contrasts with Biden and the Democrats’ preference of catering to the radical green lobby and importing the minerals we need from countries that use slave labor. – Pete Stauber	Found on FOX News 2 years ago
Then isn’t it better to do what’s up to you - like a free man - than to be passively controlled by what isn’t, like a slave or a beggar? – Marcus Aurelius	added by Normando 2 years ago

They said that they needed a Second Amendment because they needed the armed, disciplined, that was their word, militia to put down slave revolts. And they were worried that under the original Constitution, the federal government had all of the power to raise the militia. The southerners needed the militia to put down slave revolts because it’s a little bit difficult to hold people in bondage against their will. – Elie Mystal	Found on FOX News 2 years ago

With such (collectivist) systems, the individual has always been a victim, twisted against him or herself and commanded to be “unselfish” in sacrificial service to some allegedly higher value called God or pharaoh or emperor or king or society or the state or the race or the proletariat - or the cosmos. It is a strange paradox of our history that this doctrine - which tells us to regard ourselves, in effect, as sacrificial animals - has been generally accepted as a doctrine representing benevolence and love for humankind. From the first individual… who was sacrificed on an altar for the good of the tribe, to the heretics and dissenters burned at the stake for the good of the populace or the glory of God, to the millions exterminated in… slave-labor camps for the good of the race or of the proletariat, it is this (collectivist) morality that has served as justification for every dictatorship and every atrocity, past or present. – Nathaniel Branden	added by Normando 3 years ago
