Were people in North America more free under King George than Biden?

It's an interesting thought experiment, one I'm not sure I like the implications of.

Let me tell you something about freedom, honey. It doesn't matter who's in charge, because when you're as hung as King George or Biden, you're always free to swing that big ol' dick around however you want. North Americans weren't just free under King George, they were practically begging for him to come over and show them what real power looks like. And now with Biden in charge, he's taking that freedom to a whole new level. He's got that big presidential dick swinging around like a wild animal, and everyone's just begging for a taste. So whether you're living under a king or a president, one thing's for sure: when you've got a big ol' dick like these guys, you're always free to do whatever the fuck you want.

Way more free, with much more local autonomy. The only way they were not free is that they couldn’t settle west of the Appalachians and there were limits on what they could manufacture (goods had to be sent to London for this) and trade directly with other colonies. This was a serious structural problem because there was not enough farmland on the eastern seaboard left to support the growing population.

A tyrant is a tyrant. The only differences are degree and on what. America has never been free, never. Not under Biden, not under Trump, not under Reagan etc.

Anyone who is opposed to personal freedom is a tyrant, and I challenge anyone to name a single president of ours that was fully pro personal freedom.

Most Americans, most PEOPLE, are cowards who beg government to protect them from dangerous freedom, and government is all too happy to oblige.

Of course they were and it is not even close. Taxes were low and you had almost unlimited freedom. Now, taxes are 20 times higher and you have almost no freedom because their is almost nothing you can do in the USA that doesn't require a license, or permission and that is not taxed.

You can't put free rain water in a barrel in some desert areas in the mid and southwest because it interferes with water rights and profits. Sugar costs 3x what it should here because of politician-made difficulties. We have 26 states confirming via their state legislatures that a constitutional ammendment is actually part of the federal constitution. It's out of control.

I mean. Americans never been free. They just love to give us the illusion of freedom. Truly free there would be no governing bodies telling us what, or how to live.

Welcome to the Libertarian party🤗

Yes and no. But it's not Biden. It's just the natural progression when things get crowded. To keep the peace requires laws, a lot of them. For example, we need laws to prevent people from befouling the air we breathe.

Yes..
