This fellow is a great example of how anyone can write anything on the internet and pretend to be an academic. He should perhaps consider reading some history to find out what the word "serf" means, then, while he's at it, look into economic freedom. One can argue that some civil liberties have been eroded with the advent of easy tracking and data storage, but we have greater economic freedoms today than at any time in modern history. And drug laws have nothing to do with ownership of one's body; they are a misguided attempt at engineering a civil society. We decided that drug addicts break the social contract and should therefore be punished. I disagree vehemently with the war on drugs, but his analysis is incredibly misguided.
