We are told, all through our lives, that we live in a FREE Country. We are bombarded with slogans like, "Freedom isn't Free." I have written to my Representatives and asked them to define this principal. What I've gotten back are boilerplate thank yous for my interest? Wow, we are told that this country's freedom is worth dying for but I don't feel free. I served in the military and went overseas. I risked my life for this country (at less that minimum wage) and was honorably discharged. I've traveled all over the world and the US seems much more restrictive than many other countries. Someone out there reading this, I Hope, can tell me what is so exceptional about the US. Tell me what I am missing. What does it mean to be free?
What do you think it means? Or perhaps it's meaningless, just propaganda. I want to feel proud and believe. I hope someone can help me with this.
