How Free Do We Want to Be

HOW FREE DO WE WANT TO BE? Just think of the fun we could have if we did not have to follow any rules and regulations. You could go into a shop,fill your basket with all types of fancy goods and leave without paying for them. If you drive, then there would be no need to worry about getting stopped for speeding or dangerous driving. If you are at school you could forget all …

…rules but there is little agreement about what is the right amount of regulation. Some countries are very liberal such as Holland which for example allows some degree of drug taking. Other countries try to control as much as possible the lives of it’s citizens. These countries are often totalitarian states and will have influence over what clothes its people wear, where they can go and what they can read or watch on TV.
