Nor did they have to.Freedom does sound good
But the founders were free. They could buy land, they could move around at will. They could speak their minds
They did not provide that freedom to blacks, Indians, women
Nor does socialism.
Nevermind the fact that whites were oppressed by the Crown as well as blacks, natives, and women.
Nevermind the fact that whites were sold into a form of slavery in England and shipped off to America as a form of punishment every day.
Wow, it's almost like the history of humanity is the story of people being shitty to each other.
If only some wise group of people somewhere could aspire to rise above that and create a nation where we could all learn to be better than our basest nature . . .
