  1. The Government

    Laws

    Money

    Unexpected Changes

    Stupid People


  2. beliefs of any kind..it embraced everything you mentioned above and bellow, and that which is not mentioned yet...check it out.

  3. The physical realm of reality.

    My corporealness.

    My mortality.

    My size.

    My weight.

    My bank account.

    My looks.

    My friends.

  4. Other than the obvious laws of physics, I would say other people's freedom.

  5. The US education system.

  6. self preservation

  7. Some call it conscience. Others call it their inner voice. Still others would describe it as one's moral core or center.

  8. My boss

    mortgage

    paying for everything and thus having to work.

  9. The need to work, so we can have enough money to have freedom. But having to work again because the money runs out too quick. It's a vicious circle. To have freedom to enjoy life, we need to work to earn the money. Thus we spend our lives working to earn enough money to enjoy our freedom, but don't have enough leisure time to actually have any freedom. Catch 22.

  10. For the most part, family and my own inhibitions

  11. Wow- surprised no one but Barb M (oh- and HEMP and dirigent) took responsibility for this phenomena:

    myself

    We are each free insofar as the boundaries which we've place on ourselves (e.g. not shedding our own "baggage").

  12. -morals and values, if you strongly believe in them

    -being scared

    -gravity

    -authority

    -laws

  13. invisible walls that control us set up by society and elders

  14. Having to live in Michigan

  15. The one thing above anything physical that limits and individuals freedom is how they think. For instances, if you where to be locked up or incapacitated in some way you still could have all the freedom you want in the way you think and  in the vividness of your imagination. When we are locked up or not physically free our mind is what suffer the most.  The exploits of our mind will give us unlimited freedom.

  16. Consequence and Conscience  

  17. pretty much every law their is except for the obvious needed ones like going to jail for life if you kill someone. the only thing that's not illegal now a days is thinking. you cant even speak your mind now a days with out getting crucified for it.

  18. The clause in the 14 Amendment that creates the "citizen of the United States." Before that clause no such "citizen" existed. We were "Citizens of the several States" with reciprocal rights in each state, within reason.

    That clause literally made us the slaves of the Federal Government, where before we were protected FROM the powers of the Fed. Now we are subject to it.

  19. Fear, the possibility of failure, any person who is dependent on you, and parents.

    ...Actually people in general. When you think of it we would never have fear of failure if people were not there to judge us and others were not there to succeed while we fail. money would not be a problem if it weren't for other people and the need of a system to go by for things to work. There would be no fear, there would be no one to influence your decisions! Everyone has a slight hold on the person beside us as they have on us. Pure and utter freedom does not exist for any living thin on earth. Even a little fish's fate is decided by the person or bear that eats it. Also nature! The fish can only swim in water! If we did not die we would go any were! Freedom does not exist and never will exist because it is physically impossible!

    If it sounds life i was kind of rambling and typing things down the moment they popped in my brain, it is because I was.

  20. Illness, lost of income, unfounded

    rumors, inability to find a job,

    natural disasters, fire, and/or a

    bad credit rating.

  21. Existence within someone else's frame of reference.

  22. Parents

  23. I limit my own freedom. As stupid as it sounds, it's true. Sometimes we are the ones that limit our own freedom. It's not really those things that limit our freedom, but it's how we confined ourselves by those things.

  24. Liberals

  25. dependency on other people and/or substances ( weed, alcohol, cigarettes )

  26. living a decent life with a house and car and family and whatnot

  27. Family

    Society

    Lack of knowledge (not just secondary education)

    Lack of confidence


  28. Marriage

  29. My own perception of limited freedom.

  30. your freedom limits my freedom.

    so having your freedom limited is a good thing for everybody.

  31. expectations
