She's just suffering from an outbreak of euphoria that her nanny ceded her rights to the television long enough for PC to watch something.

Why do I have the impression that you watch far more TV than I?
Oh...right...because you're illiterate.
So...what did you think of the OP?
The Truman Show is one of my all-time favorite movies. It's theme runs far beyond politics though.
PC you are so wrapped up in pretending your smart you look like a complete idiot.
cock that roach
she is the epitome of who the right plays.
people who want to think of themselves as smart but dont want to actaully have to think

Even you were reading as much as you claim, you'd still be wasting your time. Learn to think.
if you read the preceding paragraph, it helps clarify that this absolute power already exists:
"I seek to trace the novel features under which despotism may appear in the world. The first thing that strikes the observation is an innumerable multitude of men, all equal and alike, incessantly endeavoring to procure the petty and paltry pleasures with which they glut their lives. Each of them, living apart, is as a stranger to the fate of all the rest; his children and his private friends constitute to him the whole of mankind. As for the rest of his fellow citizens, he is close to them, but he does not see them; he touches them, but he does not feel them; he exists only in himself and for himself alone; and if his kindred still remain to him, he may be said at any rate to have lost his country."
So, subscribe to your ADT service, and buy your oversize SUV, and tease your fleshly desires with junk food, and tune into the Two-Minutes-Hate with Sean Hannity, and plug an iPod into your cranium, and tell yourself that because it is the private sector, there is nothing to worry about there.

Your quote seems to accept the false concept that man exists for the sake of others, and not for himself. That describes a slave, not a free man.
Free people exist in communities because those communities are beneficial to the dreams and ideals of those people. They do not exist for the community, the community exists for them.
