Well yeah...  "Liberty" meant rich people thumbing their noses at the
Crown that made them rich by setting them up in business with land
grants, slaves, legal institutions and some amount of military protection.

For the peasant class, "Liberty" was a false promise of equal rights
before the law and the belief that everybody would get rich quick once
the Crown stopped taxing the Colonies.

Today, "Liberty" can have as many meanings as their are market segments
under the Right Wing umbrella, but all these meaning have one thing in
common:  Direct rule by our billionaires.
