Most human beings 'natural born slaves' - Britain - Times Online

Most human beings 'natural born slaves' - Britain - Times Online

See my earlier comments on positive and negative slavery in 'what does slavery mean?'. Haven't been able to get a copy of his paper, though it sounds fascinating -- not because I want to enslave mankind, but because the nature of freedom is a hard one to think about. We must follow the argument where it leads. Not back to slavery, but in thinking about how some people seem to reject their chance to grab freedom. Can we help them? How? Can the choice to reject freedom be a free choice?
