It leads to greater personal responsibility. Each person can make that into creating their own personal happiness through their own effort.

I started out being rather snotty and decided to give you the benefit of the doubt. But you must admit the question is a bit shallow at best.
It is not a logical argument that greater freedom of necessity leads to greater happiness. The two are not logical arguments for or against each other.
More individual freedom can lead to more happiness if one pursues it with enough courage and conviction to attain it.
On the opposite side, less freedom (correllary: Less freedom = more servitude) would bow to the same logic with the caveat that the less free you are, the less you can pursue that which makes you happy.
Otherwise, logically, I don't understand what you are getting at.

What is freedom? If you are talking about doing what you want when you want (of course with no harm to others)where can you do this? I bet 98% of the people in the United States feels like they have no freedom because we all have to do one thing we would really rather not do....Work for a living and separate our family during that time period. School is another issue? And then there is retirement and paying taxes....Yeah such freedom everyone wants.

It depends on how mature you are. It can overwhelm children and those not mature enough to accept the responsibilities that come with greater freedom. For me, oh yeah.....I love freedom. My song is "don't fence me in"
