I lived in Singapore for six years and then San Francisco for almost six years now, but seriously, I don’t feel US is any more “free” in any tangible ways. Maybe there are more “freedom” defined by laws in US but certainly not something that normal people will miss in daily lives.
Also over focusing on “individual” freedom apparently won’t always align with the interest of the entire society and could eventually bring down the average happiness of individuals.
