Those *dangerous* Korean War relics

It's obviously an overall judgment that weighs many different factors. The point is that in Matt's surreal opinion, having a legally imposed institution of slavery is not a significant enough violation of inalienable rights to disqualify a country from being free. Moreover, the nation's freedom, in Matt's opinion, decreased precipitously at around the time of the Civil War--to the point that, on the whole, he judges the US to have been a free country before then, but not after. Such are Matt's values. --Gary |
