Freedom is a continuous unit. Just because I can take risks doesn't mean I will, or that I am necessarily "free" to do so, or that that freedom isn't highly limited (for example, I may be free to start a company with a 2-year ramp and some expected gain, but I'm not able to take 10 years with no income to pursue some ideas that interest me). If so many people are truly free to pursue higher callings, why don't they? Look at reality, not theory. Find some answers to that question and you'll start to discover the wide and complex range of restrictions on true freedom.
