Well it is the ability and right to live our life as we want to with out the government deciding it for us. The sad thing is that too many do not seem to mind having someone else make their choices for them anymore. So slowly over the years the government has taken more control away from the people a little bit at a time. You can't do this or than without some government nut job telling you what YOU can do anymore.

An example of this is the fact I want to build a second dwelling on this property. Just a garage finished like a "Grand mother's" apartment. I do not like my Wife being alone during the day if I am gone. We have grand kids that could use the apartment while finishing college or working after college. Then later when our health fails it maybe where we live as it would be a level floor plan an easier to get around in with a walker or wheel chair. Then when we are gone it would just be striped of a few walls and there would be a two car garage for the future owners. I own this free and clear but the county says I can't put a second dwelling on any parcel smaller than 40 acres without their "approval". I did not see their name on the deed or mortgage when I bought this place. Just creeping communism to me.

The Greatest Generation built a great country that was better off when they left it. The baby boomers that followed did not do as good of job. I guess we are too much of an entitlement generation where our parents want and felt they should "earn" things themselves. The current generation is even worse than we where. The want everything provided by the government: food, housing, health care an all this for Free!!!

Pretty soon we will have very little freedom left. Did our forefather's have to asked to build a shanty when they settled much of this state??? There would have been open warfare if the government had tried to regulate prior generations like they do us now. We are becoming a nation of sheep blindly following the
rules" others say are "right/correct".
