    That really makes me wonder what you mean by liberal

    My take on the word highlights individual freedom except where it interferes with other individual’s freedoms

    My take has most regulation put on corporations, ie. you and I are pretty free; Google has rules to follow (and so does the butcher, baker, and candlestick maker)

    To make it clear the common liberal position is individuals should be free to do as they want unless it is harmful to others; companies should be regulated enough to protect people, the environment, competition

        Slaves? We have electricity and automation. Although slaves might make things easier, slaves are people and should have the same freedoms as you and me

        Also employees would have might higher production than the same number of slaves
