Would you rather live in a peaceful society that had an extremely nill amount of crime/war/poorer population that had restrictions on a few rights, or live in a society which had no such barriers, but had a high rate of crime/war/large poor population?

I dont think it would matter to be honest.
people would be unsatisfied either way and some sort of radical "revolution" would break out
thats a price of a new type of scociety

would you rather be a slunk who gets fed, watered, medicated and entertained, or would you rather be someone who has the active responsibility for your rights?

do you prefer playing sports or playstation?

is anything more important to you then your own comfort?

would you be willing to die for anything besides your own survival?

Freedom isn't free, and rights require the responsibility of developing the capacity to do what you ought to do, not just what you want to do.
