My mother used to say, "We're not poor; we're just broke." It was her way of saying that poverty is a state of mind and believing that you are poor (whatever words you use to describe your state) will ensure you remain poor. It's the same for nations and freedom. A free and moral people will be free and moral regardless of their form of government, while a servile and immoral people will remain servile and immoral no matter how much liberty and prosperity you attempt to foist upon them.
