How does Freedom of Speech impact your life?
freedom of speach, i can sing when i want, i can preach the bible if i so choose, i can debate with someone, i can vote because its a right and a freedom.
other countries dont have the freedoms we do, so cherish what you have,
I say the way it is now.
we dont have freedom
I think all these journalists professional or not
are no longer safe doing their job whether it may be writing or reporting on any story or chain of events in any part of the world, they get kidnapped and tortured for it, many of these
people who go missing, and are responsible
for any articles that are considered offensive, usually pay a price for it. Where is safe anymore? They should all be very careful of
stepping on the toes of foreign Governments
and home grown terrorists. It is not worth a time
of day to loose your life for that. More so be
careful what is written and published, also
disclosing identity and whereabouts.
A lot of journalists risk their lives to bring truth to the people but a lot of journalists that go into high risk areas have an agenda other than just the news, they are operatives of intelligence agencies with the cover of a journalist.
I want to be free from money, people, and society but also have the bare necessities and live with honor.
Basically I got something against society.
I will never grow up and never want to
*Alternative option:
How do I get people to stop being pawns, cowards and have honor? Anarchy would be best
Go the wilderness of Alaska and disappear. Unfortunately there are very few places left to escape from society. A hermit like existence in an unspoiled part of nature is the only alternative, but even there you’ll probably be "trespassing" on someone’s property. A hermit like existence is all that I can imagine. Even buying your own property and isolating yourself would be impossible unless you’re wealthy enough to afford to pay property taxes and the like.
Have you tried finding someone that shares your disdain for societal pressures that you can share your life with? It’s preferable to have a partner in existence rather than be truly alone – regardless of the philosophical question of whether or not we are always alone.
There are like minded people that never want to conform, have you considered seeking them out as an alternative to being a hermit or a loner?
There are artists of every medium who allow themselves to retain their childlike wonder, and who even share it with the rest of us – could be a better solution.
Good luck on your quest for happiness.
I am not talking about getting paid for it like in the military either.
Only certain people, most other people are to self absorbed.

I was just thinking cos my basic training would be 22weeks.
Cos in the military your life is the Militarys and they kinda choose what u do u arnt in control of things as much as a civi but I would like military life more cos it’s way more rewarded
First couple of weeks you will miss everything for sure, but you will be kept busy and be making new friends, as the weeks pass you won’t miss it so much and will be starting to adapt to your new surroundings, pretty much in your basic the Army will chose everything you do 24 hours a day, it’s a load of bs to test your mental strength and character. just keep your head down, make friends, say yes sir, no sir etc and it gets more normal once you join your unit.
I don’t think I could.
Being free and not having anyone dictate to you how to live your life is worth way more than any material wealth, I think.
And you?
Nope, give me my freedom to come and go as a commoner, don’t need no wealth and/or fame. I can’t even begin to imagine having to live my life on a schedule and having the public even know what time I bathe, forget that.
Are there good and bad consequences to freedom? Your thoughts?
Bad choices cost me. I guess I am slow, and do not understand this question.
I guess making bad choices is a learning process, yet, in my situation, I lost all together.
I suppose God does not allow mistakes, OR he leaves you for as long as it takes when you mess up, until you realize your mistake, then he comes back.
shed for choosing a good path and doing well for themselves? Doesn’t this discourage success? We should all pay exactly the same rate of taxes since we ALL had the freedom to choose what we become in life…..
Hi I am successful and I am not punished for it. Being poor is way harder. This Republican fantasy land of entitlements is a lie designed by those with something to gain and perpetuated by the ignorant and naive. Life is hard and making it in America is tough.
We should not all pay the same taxes. In fact taxing direct labor is unethical and defies the spirit of our constitution and social contract. Income taxes on direct labor or earned income is wrong. While tax on graduated income necessary if we are to finance the system which such income relies on to exist. Without a common currency and forum for creating market rules – there are no corporations. A progressive tax is the only way to alleviate the unfair social burden on our labor class. They should not be taxed at all. But so long as they are – then they should be taxed considerably less. A group of people with 10% of the nations wealth shouldering 75% of the responsibility is a travesty. I am well aware that such common sense principals escape conservatives completely. But perhaps some independent thinkers will read this question and understand my meaning.
I wonder if any conservative responders are going to use personal slanders as the basis for their response.
