There many definitions for freedom It is what

people. eth So as-~a
Ask the small boy a spring day and he'll answer
you promptly mo school and the fish biting Ask the spec
ulator he'll say mo reStrictons-and quick market" y
Ask the dictator and he'll say, "a fat neghbor who will not
struggle against my divine right to take what want
Ask the pioneer and he will say Uncuttered horizons
and chance make my way Ask the dealst and he
will say, "a world where all may share the bounes of
earth Ask the religious and he will say, "A life in
which may worship my God according to my
science and obey His holy laws" @
Why are there somany definitions? Because freedom
is static thing. It is rule but way of life 1t
obligation 1t is determined by relationship to
other people Only the hermit be free alone Freedom
in civilized community is the way of life that demands

Freedom does not include the right to carry poison,
