I doubt that my sense of personal freedom is any stronger than anybody elses. Im happy to respect authority when its genuine authority, based on moral or intellectual or even technical superiority. Im eager to follow a hero if we can find one. But I tend to resist or evade any kind of authority based merely on the power to coerce. Government, for example. The Army tried to train us to salute the uniform, not the man. Failed. I will salute the man, maybe, if I think hes worthy of it, but I dont salute uniforms anymore.
