Having blogged through to the end of On Liberty, I know that what John Stuart Mill claims in the 9th paragraph of the “Introductory” to On Liberty is simple is anything but simple…Liberalism deals with harmonizing freedom, egality, and community, another one of those pesky trifectas.

Liberty certainly does not mean the freedom to steal purchasing power from the less so-called "creditworthy" via government privileges for private credit creation yet that's the filthy system we have in place.
The rest of mankind, who were not killed by these plagues, did not repent of the works of their hands, so as not to worship demons, and the idols of gold and of silver and of brass and of stone and of wood, which can neither see nor hear nor walk; and they did not repent of their murders nor of their sorceries nor of their immorality nor of their thefts. Revelation 9:20-21 New American Standard Bible (NASB)
Too late to repent? Not if we really mean to.
Let the wicked forsake his way and the unrighteous man his thoughts; and let him return to the Lord, and He will have compassion on him, and to our God, For He will abundantly pardon. Isaiah 55:7
