Democracy and Freedom

Freedom is the ability to conduct ones affairs, and pursue ones goals,
without interference from government.

Democracy is the right of the government to impose the will of 51% of your
neighbors on you by force every time the neighbors don't like what you are
doing.

I am constantly surprised and amazed that there are people on this list
who think democracy and freedom are the same thing.

The ideal government is dictatorship, under the ideal dictator.
