PART THREE OF THIS SERIES
A PERSIAN PROVERB: “He who knows not, and knows not that he knows not, is a fool – shun him. He who knows not, and knows that he knows not, is a child, teach him. He who knows and knows not that he knows – is asleep, wake him. He who knows and knows that he knows is wise, follow him.”
One of my favorite quotations, and I’m reflecting upon that quotation while writing these articles from the book “Witness” by Whitaker Chambers, who was a communist and defected, and testified in the congressional hearings, exposing the communists in seats of government. I suggest reading the book, because he knew – listen to him.

Confucius says, “If your plans are for one year, plant rice, if your plans are for ten years, plant trees, and if your plans are for one hundred years educate men.” Confucius was a very wise oriental man.
But not as wise as the Founding Fathers of this country, who wrote the Declaration of Independence and the United States Constitution. Their plans were obviously for one-hundred and beyond, as they carved out these two documents, with Divine Guidance.

SECOND IN THIS SERIES ABOUT OWNERSHIP
In a Free Society, private ownership is the only moral role. Tribal action, of collective use of property, is a hopeless impasse at presumed collective ownership. Only by express permission can you use collective property. Even though you paid for it. It’s operated by those who did not pay for it and used by those who neither paid for it nor operate it. Therefore the question, is who owns it?

When I noticed I had posted 360 articles in just over two years, it occurred to me the number 360 completes a circle. The total number of degrees in a circle. Therefore I asked myself whether or not I had gone full circle on anything.
I have written on a variety of subjects, but always underlying my ideas on any subject, is the notion of individual Freedom. When I started these blog articles, it was part of my core belief, everyone desired Freedom. I soon discovered such is not the case. Because Freedom is self-responsibility and self-control, there is a segment of the society, who does not want that. They want someone else to assume responsibility for their actions. They want a centralized political government to take care of them. They reject the responsibility of self-governing. And like the nanny state.
