Adam Jensen:
Freedom... To those who don't have it, it's more valuable than gold. But where should it start and end? We humans often think we have the right to expand, absorb, convert, or possess anything we need to reach our dreams. But time and time again, hasn't this led to conflicts with others who essentially believe the same thing? Looking back at the challenges I faced - at the way I often resolved them - I realize morality can become our saving grace. Most of the time, didn't I try to keep my values in mind, knowing how my actions would effect others? More often than not. I resisted the urge to abuse power and resources simply to reach my goals more swiftly. I managed to hang on to my humanity - but the temptation to ignore it was always there. It's that temptation that so worries Taggart. He's not afraid of freedom. He's afraid of the chaos that erupts when individuals have nothing but morality to constrain them. He wants us to regulate enhancement technologies, because he fears all that power whitout limits, whitout guiderails to keep us from abusing it. Absolute freedom is no better than chaos. Society needs laws and regulations to protect it. So if the men and women behind Taggart need to work in the shadows, pulling strings to enable us to head in a safe direction, will supporting them be all that bad? If they're as wise as Taggart says, how bad will their leadership be? I just hope they stand by with they say. [Haggard Ending - Anti Augmentation]
