Would you rather sacrifice some security for more liberty?
Or visa versa.

Why?!

Ben Franklin:-

"Any society that would give up a little liberty to gain a little security will deserve neither and lose both."

I agree with Ben on this one.

I think this latest round of the ruling class curtaling our rights is just the latest offensive on their behalf. Since Thatchers election in 1979, in the UK the Working Class movment has been faced with a series of defeats, its only recnetly that the Unions have been pressuries into acting by their membership and that the elft has started moving again.

Security from what, a made up scam to scare me? The only real threat to me is capitalism, and we know how to handle that.
