First of all we take freedom of speech for granted. For
example; in the U.S. we are able to say
what is on our minds and well depending on the outtakes of things not have to
go to jail or anything. In other parts of the world some people are not even
allowed to say anything negative about an important person in their government.
They cannot also give their opinion on laws or how the government runs things.
Although it is good that we can speak our minds it can also
get us in trouble with the law sometimes. Or our way of thinking can also start
a riot and have people against people so then some people would have the need
to use violence. Which then would have the government get involved.
Another freedom we have is the freedom to vote for a president.
In some countries the “people” do not have a right to choose who will
run their country. Unlike us who choose who we want to run our country
depending on the campaign they run or the promises they make us. We also have a
system which does not let the president make all the decisions by himself but
with first it going thru a system of people who would then vote on it and
decide if it stays or it goes. Some countries though have to just deal with the
decisions their government, or more likely the dictator, makes.
