Why not reverse the question? What freedoms do other countries have that are not in ours? For instance, I notice a large number of automatic military-grade weapons among the people of the Middle East. Why isn't that freedom in this country were everyone supposedly has the right to bear arms? I know that virtually anyone can set up a business almost anywhere on any street or road in Mexico without any governmental permission whatever. Also street vendors abound in many foreign countries, but are allowed in only a few places here outside of New York City. Why is that? Why do these other supposedly less free countries have more freedom of enterprise than do the citizens of a country where that freedom is one of its basic building blocks?

It;s always interesting to look at things from the opposite side of the window, don't you think?

OK, Here is a basic freedom that we have here in the United States that some countries overseas don't have.

You have the freedom to travel from state to state, and you don't have to go through a check point at any border.

We have the freedom to walk past a Muslim Synagogue and straight into a Catholic Church.

We have the freedom to critize those holding the highest office in the land, without fear of being executed.

I could go on and on, but if you don't the differences between the freedoms we have in our country and the lack of freedoms that exist in other countries, then I can't help you out much more.

outrageous freedom laws?

here is one in the USA, freedom and freedom of speech

if people have the right to speak, then they can say about anything
if they have too much freedom, they can do almost anything from rape to murders to crimes

or am I just generalizing............I am Satan

None of us are free. We are all wage slaves.
