Philosophical Question

Freedom is essentially being able to do anything. No one could hold you down or tell you what to do. There are no restrictions, and you don't have to do anything for anyone unless you want to. No country could ever have absolute freedom because of the chaos it would ensue.
 
Free as in freedom, not free as in free beer.
 
I was going to reply "murica", but seeing as this isn't Mindless Junk:

The ability to do/say/believe whatever one desires, regardless of others' beliefs or opinions. Obviously true freedom is impossible; the result would be an absolute mess. The most we can hope to achieve is freedom within reason, as we can't just go around killing people, etc.
 
Freedom is being gone from my parents' control forever.

I don't know what else to say, so I guess I will mention I also like Tucky's and Yoshinumber's answers.

Completely agree with this. It's because we don't have this "absolute freedom" I'm a cynic in this world.

Whilst America IS like the country with the most "freedom" there are obviously still restrictions. But these "restrictions"(talking about everywhere now) are what "somewhat" keep this world in order. Everyone would just be rampaging and it'd be such a pain in the ass and the TRUE 2012 apocalypse.(the chaos you refer to)

There WILL NEVER be a utopia. Not now. Not ever.

Course, what my opinion is is not even a fraction of a percent in this overly populated growing world. So my opinion(and mostly everyones) is mute.
