If you are one of those people who want to control what people can and cannot do, your doing nothing but taking yours and everyone else's freedoms away, even if you are not aware of it.
I don't care what anybody chooses to do with their time or money as long as it is not harming another individual.
The basis for this type of thinking is very simple and logical. The reason why people cannot stand to see people do things they would not personally do is because they were trained from birth to judge others without looking at things from different perspectives of life. We are all born into a different cult(ure) and it is quite obvious some cultures have a specific ideology of having higher moral standards than others.
These cultures that tend to hold higher moral standards than others typically are westernized nations that have a history of colonization. The American culture is built off the premise that the Native Americans were savage and inferior to the men who brought war and diseases to their land. We were all taught at an early age that what cultures had came before us were inferior to us and less civilized to allow the colonization program to continue even to this day.
These stories of our past show us how we got to our present day mindset of every man for himself. It is truly embarrassing to be living in a time where many people think they are more civilized than others because of their fancy cars and jewelry, not knowing the blood that was spilled to make these products.
What holds this group mindset of national pride and government worship in place is the implementation of artificial scarcity. Our natives in America lived in abundance simply by following a more grounded and unified society where everything was to be shared and not hoarded like today.
The main reason why we have so many laws and restrictions on freedom is because people do not have the ability to perceive a different kind of lifestyle other than their own. Once people start focusing on their own lives instead of running other people's, we can restore peace and abundance back to all of humanity.
