If something was wrong in their eyes, they'd make a law against it or an amendment. This country has never been free by the definition many of us were led to believe it was. Many of us have not realized it until now. The US is not about freedom, it's about money, assets, and power. Each branch of government and individual citizens are all cogs in the monster of greed and wrath.

America is the land of opportunity, IF you play by their rules or manage to fly under the radar. Basically, you're allowed to be rich but you aren't allowed to engage in ungodly social and personal behavior.
