Dylan summed it up
'cares not to come any higher,
but rather drag you down in the hole
that he's in

Who lives in a vault
But its all right, ma
If I cant please him

Those who want slavery should have the grace to name it by its proper
name. They must face the full meaning of that which they are advocating
or condoning; the full, exact, specific meaning of collectivism, of its

the ultimate consequences to which these principles will lead. They must
face it, then decide whether this is what they want or not.
