Some Ways We’re Not Free

We’re not free so long as:
a. we have free speech
b. fossil fuel is legal
c. the meat & dairy industry are destroying the air & sea
d. taxes are theft e.
e. we must serve in the army
f. smokers can give us cancer with 1 alpha particle

① a & e
② b & c
③ d
④ b, c and d
⑤ a ~ f

The answers are b, c and f.
a. is not a reason for lack of freedom; It’s a reason we are free.
b. Taxes aren’t theft; they are agreed upon by our representatives and many of them serve us.
e. Serving in the army is something people do in free countries. One could say that it is control of the citizens if they do not elect for it, but even in countries such as South Korea–a democracy–the people can elect to do away with conscription.

Masks

It’s not just about you; it’s about the comfort of others.

From Twitter:

1. Bo: Aren’t ya gonna _ a mask?
2. Jo: When I _ one of those, I’m uncomfortable.
Bo: We all are, but it’s necessary.
Jo: They don’t work!
Bo: They do–against sneezes, coughs–and, it’s not just about you; it’s about the comfort of others.

Pick The Best Answers:
wear
put on
use

Answers & Explanation:
1. ‘wear,’ because we wear clothing after we put it on.
2. ‘put on,’ because first we put on clothes, then we wear them all day–or until we take them off.
‘Use‘ works in both cases, but the test is to pick the best answers.
