A free America... means just this: individual freedom for all, rich or poor, or else this system of government we call democracy is only an expedient to enslave man to the machine and make him like it.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
People cannot be free unless they are willing to sacrifice some of their interests to guarantee the freedom of others. The price of democracy is the ongoing pursuit of the common good by all of the people.
Either we are all free, or we fail; democracy must belong to all of us.
The essence of a democracy is a free electorate.
No country is free unless it is democratic.
A free people, free to believe as we wish, free to speak our minds, free to raise our children as we see fit, will, make no mistake about it, endure.
There's not an American in this country free until every one of us is free.
The United States is the leader of the free world.
Democracy means the opportunity to be everyone's slave.
I do believe that freedom isn't free - but today the corporate and political right wing is trying to cheapen this truly American value. They've been cynically using the word 'freedom' to rally the American public against its own best interests.
Definition of 'Free': You pay for it whether or not you elect to receive it.
