freedom is what makes humans strive for greatness and the betterment of themselves. Government should only resrict freedoms when the freedoms of one impose on the freedoms of another in an unreasonable way.

Do you appreciate your freedom? Do you think of you have too a lot freedom? or too little? Do you think of others (human beings) have too a lot freedom, or too little? What could you do to develop the situation? heavily, i think of you will desire to have perplexed your self. in case you extremely have faith that freedom is the source of issues and which you (or some surprisingly intelligent human beings) would by some skill keep the "silly" than I question your authority. you're able to dare to scouse borrow away yet another's acceptable to make their own judgements on the inspiration which you suspect your by some skill doing the international stable like a determine does take care of a baby. The audacity! in addition to, i don't comprehend how such an concept may well be ethical. Stealing own property is universally seen immoral. What then is the cost of the immorality of stealing away ones skill to offer for themselves and their own households? to decide for ones own destiny!? Thats the liberty which you suspect could be so foolishly given away to mere mortals! i've got faith that it is conceivable which you would be able to think of that freedom is a luxury this is merely too useful to easily reveal to all people... that one would enable some evildoer. Your foolishness will come back to hang-out you while it is your rights that are taken away and your existence this is imprisoned to serve those fortunate adequate to fill the ranks of the chosen. Sorry, i'm a sprint perturbed right this moment... merely had adequate!

The government should have no control in a prefect world but they do because we are too lazy to police ourselves and make smart decisions. That's why the government has so much power over us. Look at the mortgage crisis. The government wants to bail people out. It is essentially buying votes. We are way to dependent on the government.

The only actions of a free citizen which the government can control without negating the individual's status as a free citizen are those which would initiate violence on other free citiziens.
Other than making it a crime to pay someone else to inflict violence on a person, I'm not sure what economic crimes might be included.

New Orleans, 3 Days after Kathrina. No police or other government agency downtown. Gangs kill at will, robbing and rape for fun, destroy property, stores are emptied, houses are ransacked. Total Freedom!

The government should ensure that people's decisions do not harm others or step on others' rights to make decisions. Aside from that, they should mind their own business!
