Freedom of Expression is No Longer Sufficient for a True Democracy

“There is a strange illusion of freedom in this plutocracy masquerading as a democracy. Yes, we have the freedom to be obscene, wear the latest Halloween costume, and behave rudely. But we remain slaves to a system that will imprison us if we don’t pay our taxes, compels us to buy essentials from monopolies, and will seize our house if we fail to make the mortgage. Just because you can say ‘f-ck’ in public does not change the fact you remain a slave to the dollar bill.”
