RE: Free society - How strong is the case?

in #freedom8 years ago

I also agree with the concept of a free society. And like you I wonder if it's possible. I like to think so. I big problem I see is with the statement "Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely". How do you implement rules, and oversee the running of society without having some form of power base (whether government or not) that becomes corrupt, making rules to suit themselves.

I agree. A good friend told me the other day that everything in life is balanced... Each of the extremes on the side will take life out of balance. And power at any of the ends will surely take this out of balance as well.
