@TheHealthLife Also hate to tell you slavery is just as common today as it was 2000 years ago or 250 years ago. Humanity has learnt nothing. 40 million people mostly women and children. 6500 workers died building the football stadiums in Qatar for the 2022 world cup.

You should be careful quoting a slave owner who clearly understood nothing about liberty but only his own self interest.

@robertjudge2501 Slavery is recorded in Mesopotamia 3500 BCE 500 years before Egypt.

@TheHealthLife My simple reply was to the original comment and was to highlight the nonsensical and outrageous idea that some minor health precautions are an assault on our democratic freedoms. It was not in anyway inaccurate in context to the original comment. In his time Franklin was a great man but not infallible.

@robertjudge2501 Yes it does particularly when a slave owner is talking about liberty. If you can't even see the irony in the quote from a slave owner about liberty then there is little more I can say.

@Denise-ie2mp And you see no irony in a slave owner talking about liberty.

@TheHealthLife Actually you tell me when was it moral to own someone as property. Not socially acceptable, moral?

@robertjudge2501 Actually tell me when was it moral to own someone as property? Not legally or socially acceptable but morally?

"Liberty" is a trivial pursuit if your loved ones are sick and dying.

@TheHealthLife To save people's lives, absolutely.

@TheHealthLife Oh yeah real nice. His will stated they could go free as he had no further use of them, so generous.

@safetyfirst1484 Actually Sweden currently has an infection rate twice that of Australia so I have no idea what you are talking about being ahead on herd immunity.

@TheHealthLife The World Health Organisation declared a pandemic in Mar 2020. Also I would be careful of who you call a nit, there is nothing in the definition of a pandemic that relates to the fatality rate or recovery rate.

@TheHealthLife Fair enough. My resource for a pandemic is the WHO and the Oxford dictionary, what is yours? On a side note the AZ vaccine is being provided at cost to the world. Yes the mRNA vaccines like Pfizer are making a shitload of money but they did previously spend a lot on research in my opinion that is fair. If you a Marxist and do not approve of private companies making a profit from their products then fine that's your right.

@robertjudge2501 Firstly there is nothing communistic about intoducing some simple health measures to prevent uneccessary deaths. You have completely missed the point, America is such a great country because as deeply flawed as it is it has this wonderful ability to self reflect on its mistakes and make itself better. Ben Franklin is one of the most significant Persons in US history in contributing both to the US Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, however if you don't see the irony in a slave owner declaring all men are created equal then there is little more I can say.

@robertjudge2501 And yes I understand the US constitution doesn't mean all "men" when it said all "men".
