They love their servitude...

"A really efficient totalitarian state would be one in which the all-powerful executive of political bosses and their army of managers control a population of slaves who do not have to be coerced, because they love their servitude."

Passage taken from the 1932 book Brave New World by Aldous Huxley (1894-1963). The below passage taken from my 10th book 100 Proems & Poems on the Peculiar Human ABILITY to REASON, Singular Human RIGHT to CONSENT & Other Neglected Matters...

"The good citizen, the obedient subject and the sacrificial patriot are always the objectives of government, thus externally generous as internally anxious to educate the youth, the preferred means to the coveted ends. For truly coveted are individuals’ life, liberty and property, so much so, government will forcefully take them from individuals or cleverly convince individuals to give them up quite willingly. Hence effective, publicly funded institutions of all educational levels have transformed political objectives into social even religious virtues, that is, to be good, obedient and sacrificial towards policies and privileges arbitrarily, presumptuously contrived and imposed, instead of personal principles and preferences logically, privately concluded and practiced."

Come let us Reason. Peace is always a Choice.
Study, Ponder, Labor, till last Breath.
