Measure your freedom
Thoughts before election day
Here's a quick and easy way to see if you are more free than you were.
Have your taxes gone up since the last election?
Have the rules and regulations governing your life increased since the last election?
Are there more laws since the last election?
If the answer to these questions is yes, then you are less free than you were.
Of course, this only scratches the surface. There are many more ways to measure freedom. But these three questions are probably the most basic.
Now these next questions are absolutely vital.
Did the person you are voting for help make things worse?
What makes you think the "system" can be saved?
