It's not about allowing people to choose; It's about what choices are available.
Honestly though, what I am really talking about is a cultural issue, not a political issue. Western cultures are hyper-individualistic, elevating the individual above all else. Further, we have managed to conflate our ideas about individualism with ideas about corporatism and property ownership and commodification of resources.
I've got to get to work, (lol, yes; make some money so I can continue to be part of the system), but maybe I'll circle back in some more detail later. It is a topic I find fascinating.
