I just stumbled down an unpleasant train of thought. Is freedom actually sustainable? Consider this:
1) free people can choose how they live, entertain whatever ideas they want, and spread whatever ideas they want.
2) a free population becomes overwhelmingly stupid as generations multiply and children aren't forced to think critically about freedom. Those generations don't know what actions endanger their freedoms.
3) stupid people can be convinced to engage in behavior that endangers their freedom.
4) the people are no longer free.
Do the people fight for freedom again? If yes, and they win, go back to step 1.
