-It says people are happier as slaves. It says if people really did not want to be wage slaves, or in fear of losing health care or jobs, they would do something about it.
The counter is if that was true, then why does the actions of the few have to be hidden.
-Which is countered by because if they know they will lose the bliss of ignorance, and it is better for them not to know, or 'they can't handle the truth.'
Which is countered by people can not make a free will choice without knowing the options so deception and hiding is stealing free will. Or slavery. And you can't know which people would choose to be willing slaves, until they have the free will choice not to be. So even if some would choose that, you oppress those that would not. And the percentage can only be known by education and knowledge of what goes on, and opportunity to make changes to the system.
-Then there is a big argument about how people must be responsible to seek out the education, it is available if it is looked for, and that determines who should lead.
Which is countered with but the people who do find the information, and do know what happens in all sectors when they speak about it to people, get side tracked by the people that want to maintain control for their own means by using deceit or distraction. So the real competitiveness of ideas shifts from best system to method to maintain a system.
And off you go with the battle of
Deceit distraction dumbing down, versus Free will, compassion, and education again.
And then back to Hamilton versus Jefferson, discussion. People are basically good, or basically bad and specialty of the aristocrats, and downward spiral stuff. But it is interesting thinking on it.
Oh and of course in the back of the mind of some is they are better then others, so any method they use is ok because they are picked to lead. That argument is always the worst.
Of coarse if you want to change the system. You have to first get people to think they can make a difference in life, then let them know what their choices are, then see what they choose. And once they choose, they have to decide if they are willing to speak up for it with friends and neighbors.
If activities are done to stop any of the above, other then civil argument in the case of talking with others, its theft of choice or free will. Stealing one of the first gifts God gave man, whew, I wouldn't think that is the best of ideas. But it is only my opinion, people get to think as they choose.
(also note the article says if you want it, why arn't people taking it from the rich, by saying 'burning houses'. But this is the very mindset of some of the rich, survival of the fittest, and constant violence in society. This is a defense for being rich, saying because they were able to steal it from pension plans and workers that were not strong enough to stop them, it makes the money theirs. Its standard thuggery thought. Mad max, anarchy, that stuff.)
