COMPLETE LIBERTY

Not sure what the politics or lack of politics are behind this song. Take a listen, read the lyrics and let me know what you think.

Sounds political to me. It sounds like a description of the pattern of human tradgedy when each great movement toward something better, fueled by anger, regardless of the truth or nobility of it's intent, is still blind enough to secure and accept agression as it's foundation and guardian. Of course, the process gets lead by authoritarians who always step up to benefit from the situation. Then the whole process starts over again in a celebration of nothing. The day a better world has won is that in which the revolution establishes no establishment, but leaves establishments on the ash heap of history.

There is the issue of whether or not an observation of history indicates that this is the definition of man, hardwired in, unavoidable, and the composer refuses to accept this. I would tend to agree based on evidence that this game appears to be a relatively new one in human history.

That's my take anyway. I suppose it could also be a yearning for leftist principles to finally be implemented "correctly".

Thanks. I'll try to use that song in the bumper music at some point. I agree with your assessment WW. A free market comes about readily when the idea of government is not present, and even when it is, people still find ways to trade.
