I like trees.

What makes a nation great? There might be multiple answers; its economy, military, healthcare.

While all these are major seasonings in the "greatness" recipe we are talking about, there is one major ingredient that's missing.

Drumroll...

Liberty (Not to be misunderstood with Liberty Mutual Insurance; if you happen to somehow associate it with this). Unsuccessful attempt at humor aside, let's explore what I mean.

Let's suppose you are a millionaire; you know what, actually, let's suppose that you are a billionaire. You retired, have a great loving family, have achieved everything you ever wanted in the world, now you just want to sit on the porch, and enjoy a peaceful episode of a pot.

What's that? You can't?

Why?

Oh, marijuana is not legal here.

Ok, that's not too bad, maybe I could get people together and demand for this to be legalized at the square.

You know what happens next.

What good is a trillion dollars if you can't buy porn. The title of this blog, speaks a very absurd yet the most basic feeling of a human being. When often the most overlooked while someone decides to compare nations, the most important factor that makes a nation great is the liberty of its citizens. When the state understands that some things should be left for the people to hate, not the laws to incinerate.

I do not endorse pornography, nor do I endorse the use of marijuana.
