Is There Only So Much You Can Imagine?

When you think about thomas paine's treatise, common sense, now this is the document that i was taught convinced the critical mass of people to support independence. And he makes the statement that government, even in its best state, is but a necessary evil. But as thomas sowll said, everything desirable is not a right. I mean, there was a long time after i believed all this, i still was clinging to intellectual property rights, until stuff in consella came along and convinced me otherwise. You can believe in these principles and just not be able to apply them, especially probably in places you're emotionally attached.
