Sooner or later, will Independence day become Dependence day?

Dependent on what?

Dependent on my country?


I hope the day never comes when I can no longer depend on my country
 
I depend on my country for......

Keeping me safe
Protecting my food, water and air
Providing access to safe roads, bridges, tunnels
Being there if I am either too old or ill to care for myself
 
On this Independence Day, I would like to thank my country for all or has done

Yes, I am proud as hell that I as a citizen can depend on my country. I am also proud that the rest of the world can depend on my country in a time of need.

Depending on and being dependent on are two entirely different things.

I for one never want to be dependent on anyone or anything

You are a member of a society. As a member you contribute to the greater good of that society and depend on it for your very existence

Not really.

But you can believe that load of crap if you want.

Unless you live in the woods, 50 miles away from civilization......it applies to you

Not really because "society" does not give me anything. I pay for everything I get and if I don't want to pay I get nothing.

And there is no "greater good".

Who do you pay? What do you buy? How do you get there? Who buys what you produce? What do you use for money?

All part of belonging to a civilization?.......That is your greater good

Unless you choose to live in the woods by yourself

I don't pay "society" I pay the guy who is selling his wares.

All a civilization is is a collection of individuals. There is no amorphous entity binding them all together somehow.
