I think the majority of people think and believe that the state is really there to protect them and do what is best for them which is really sad.
That is why I don't vote.
A free society would be one that is arguably wealthier, happier, and healthier, than an unfree society, and government interference against peaceful people is not only immoral but it's proven to repeatedly fuel bad results.
I couldn't say it better myself.
Glad I'm not the only one thinking like that.
