Those self-deluded nitwits again

At its core, "freedom isn't free" is a simple
way for millions of self-deluded nitwits to
rationalize government-generated mass murder and
destruction. That's it. It ain't any more
complicated than that. Surprisingly, the sheep
are content, and even proud of what is
accomplished with their support, and the state
gets a license to kill with no immediate cost.
Blowback is a long-term cost, but, in the words
of an icon of the state-worshiping crowd, "in the
long run, we are all dead."

Hell of a way to live, waiting to die.

If I were a True Believer, I might be inclined to
call it Hell's Waiting Room.

Anyone have a better name for it?
