Can we start by suggesting that if you don't have "fuck-you money", you aren't free?



One of the more fundamental realisations of our time. Yet most seem unaware. I'm not automatically free in a liberal democracy. Just more free than in others.


I think it was a fundamental realization of the mid-nineteenth century, but we didn't use terms like "fuck you money" in polite society back then. :)
