Comment Comment by seemack > The younger generation is much more focused on economic well-being and safety over liberty or freedomThis is perfectly reasonable when you consider it a personal decision. Sure, trade away some of your freedom for better economic well-being.But how do they justify this when their personal economic well-being requires trampling the freedom of other people?By that logic, would pro-China people would support China going to war with and taking over other countries if it brought them "economic well-being"?(edited to make the last statement more clearly a question since it's something I'm genuinely curious about.) parent seemack 7 years ago
This is perfectly reasonable when you consider it a personal decision. Sure, trade away some of your freedom for better economic well-being.
But how do they justify this when their personal economic well-being requires trampling the freedom of other people?
By that logic, would pro-China people would support China going to war with and taking over other countries if it brought them "economic well-being"?
