Are you serious?

Answer: Apparently not. My rights to a choice in this matter are rapidly being legislated out of existence.

Serious as a fucking heart attack. If you do not own your SELF, you are not free.

Property rights ARE freedom. ANY restrictions on property rights are restrictions on Freedom.

I never really understood why Jefferson changed Locke the way he did, but we got "Life, Liberty and Pursuit of Happiness" rather than "Life, Liberty, Property"...

*I* think we got chumped.
