Freedom is a difficult concept for those unaccustomed to the idea. Egalitarians do not develop an interest in freedom until they've been thoroughly abused by their equals.

That is crazy talk! <<The way you would fight WWIII is to force serfs into service for you, as you do now to provide the goodies you selfishly desire. In the Libertarian world of property owning citizens with tradable citizenship, they'd hire people to be soldiers for them. Or, if the pay rate was high enough, they'd offer their services. Freedom is a difficult concept for those unaccustomed to the idea. Without logic circuits, you might find it difficult. But some of your pattern recognition processing might help you get it.
