All we are hearing is how because Egypt may be on its way to becoming a democracy that the people are gaining their freedom. After all who ever heard of a democracy enslaving a portion of its citizenry; denying women their rights; taking the legitimately acquired property of one person and giving it to another; telling people how much they can work for; forcing people to buy a product that they might not want; denying people the right to speak freely; conscripting people into involuntary servitude for the state; telling parents what schools they can and cannot send their kids to; preventing people from using their property in completely peaceful ways; putting people in prison for voluntarily putting certain substances into their own bodies? Not I.
