How “free” are you and what defines that “freedom” for you?

This can be a broadly interpreted question(s).

Wiki links for basic ideas of different ways to approach the question:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Amendment_to_the_United_States_Constitution

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_contract

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freedom

  1. How free are you?

  2. What defines that freedom?

  3. Can others exist as free as you are or as you want to be?

  4. Is there a realistic example of what your freedom looks like? Can it be implemented where you live?

  5. Do you want others to be as free as you are or theoretically the free you want to be, even if it means it would circumvent laws or rules against it?
