KASS Quote of the Day: The Rations of Slavery Submitted by Sandi on Mon, 2008-08-18 07:02.
"Freedom is not empowerment. Empowerment is what the Serbs have in Bosnia. Anybody can grab a gun and be empowered. It's not entitlement. An entitlement is what people on welfare get, and how free are they? It's not an endlessly expanding list of rights — the "right" to education, the "right" to food and housing. That's not freedom, that's dependency. Those aren't rights, those are the rations of slavery — hay and a barn for human cattle." -- P.J. O'Rourke Mucho kudos "Crusader Rabbit"
