But spend freely if you like. Purchase your own slavery on the installment plan. What do you care? You want something shiny and new! You'll trade your freedom for a handful of glass beads and useless junk! What do you care if the country sinks into despotism, you want your Starbucks. You can't work out or run at home you need a gym membership and Amazon deliveries!
I'll tell you right now what I'm giving you all for Christmas. Hugs and good wishes! Because I'm saving my money (what little I have) to give the King a good swift kick the ass for Christmas. Next stop: General Strike!
"The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize.
