That certainly hits the nail on the head, Martin. Some people are under the impression that their happiness depends on others...and they never cease trying to control those others. They legislate, police, and censcor. That was the problem with the Nazis too. They were/are extreme control freaks. The worst kind of control freak is the guy who will kill you just so he can feel "safe". Such people are never safe, and they never run out of enemies.

Life is free. But are people's minds free? Usually the answer is "no". People are their own prison wardens. It is when they try also to imprison others without just cause that they cross the line.
