One of the best books regarding the topic, "Freedom vs. Security is "One Flew Over The Cukoos' Nest" by Ken Kesey, (the movie wasn't too shabby either).

I would suggest that we rent(or buy) this classic and watch it again with a few friends. When the movie is over, ask each other which character(patient)in the movie we relate to the most....

Flyin' west,
