Right, exactly -- a free state should not do that, yet the system is working as intended, therefore we do not live in a free state. It's time to accept that.

Why would we accept that instead of changing it?
My interpretation of ModernMech's comment is that acceptance is a pre-requisite of changing it.
ie. if you didn't accept it, then you wouldn't feel the need to change it.
I agree that is the most favorable interpretation.
