The advantages of slavery have little relevance, as few things are more valuable than liberty.

Liberty is only of value to those who would take care of themselves. Well over half the population is perfectly fine, some enthusiastic, about how much they can get over doing as little as they can to care for themselves... and then demand more.

Well, those books were probably pretty old, and Alabama isn't exactly known for being progressive.

Well... Since Tax Freedom Day is 5 months into the year I'd turn it around and say Social Security is slavery in modern America.

Don't fall for the lie that our national debt is only 15 trillion dollars. Unfunded liabilities - like social security - total well over $100 trillion.

I know that's not really your point. But I think it's still on subject.

Are you saying Alabama's current books don't say that?
