Who feels like this is the "land of the free and the home of the brave"?
At times I wonder...
Shelton?
I wonder too @SpikeTalon
Yes. I returned to the site
In what way? "Freedom" gets bandied about quite a lot in the United States, but I'm unsure it has much meaning in the way it's often used. Other nations have freedom, to varying degrees. But freedom has some intrinsic limitations, though that's more philosophical in nature. As for being the home of the brave, I don't really think there's much bravery to be seen. There's some, of course, but I see a lot more every-person-for-themselves cowardice — fear, greed, selfishness — in day-to-day interactions.
