It takes personal bravery to enjoy living in a free country.
If you are afraid you won't be able to make a living, you'll enjoy the slave-state making it for you. If you are afraid to defend yourself, you'll applaud the slave-state taking away other people's guns. If you're afraid to work out a problem, face to face with your neighbor, you'll applaud the slave-state anonymously processing your secret complaint.
A nation full of cowards is the breeding ground for abject tyranny.
