I needed to hear the voice of reason this evening. I was so frustrated with some comments I heard today that all I wanted to get across to them was "Ignorance isn't bliss, it's slavery" and so I Google'd it and found this website. Thank you for publishing this. I share every thought you've expressed here on a daily basis. I'm not sure if I'm even exaggerating about that. That's how desperate I've become for real freedom.

I have lost count of the number of conversations I've had with people who quite intelligently spell out the evils that government commits, then follow up this litany with, "That's why I'm voting for Johnny Q," or whomever the magic candidate in a given election is supposed to be. Most of us have not been trained to question fundamental assumptions, and that is a heavy chain around our necks.
