Show Notes

Allen Thomas notes that when given the ability and right to do something, far too many take that liberty as an indictment that they must. Thomas explains that true freedom expands our choices but without self-restraint and discipline, that freedom can devolve into extreme distrust or invite coercion. As the freest nation in the world, we must begin from the individual up to exercise core civic virtue of self-restraint. As individuals and communities, this example of self-restraint should carry its natural progression to the governments which bind us together.
