You are limited at least by your income and station in life arent you? how is this true freedom? one could easily conclude your a slave to your station in life. So sure if you want to say you have the freedom to do whatever you want with in your soceitial station in life, I agree. If you want to pretend you have real freedom I'd tell you to grow up.
Which is why I never even mentioned "true freedom" or whatever the hell that this, so don't imply that I did. I try to live my life in a manner that I believe is practical, fulfilling, and moral. No fairy tales or skygods or myths required.
So no, I'll pass on the offer to be a slave, as raucously fun as that sounds. I'll live my life my own way, thanks.
