TASK 2: Society is based on rules and laws. It could not function if individuals were free to do whatever they wanted to do. To what extent do you agree or not?

“Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose,” retorted a great poet. That is a great concept but does that mean that we can do whatever we like without repercussions? I believe not, as any action will always have some kind of effect on others.

It is always easy to harm others, whether it is intentional or not. That is why society is heavily regulated and becoming more than with every passing year. If we drive too fast, we will obviously hurt someone else before too long. “No man is an island,” all those around us affect us as we affect others in turn; Therefore, we have to have limits to our behavior ensure that everyone is safe to live their lives the way they choose.

Although our choices are limited by law and morals, I still believe that we have plenty of freedom to live our lives happily in most countries in the world. Too much restriction forces us to live in certain ways that may not allow us to express ourselves in a way that's true to ourselves. So whoever makes the rules must do so altruistically.

In sum, without the necessary limitations that keep us safe, society could never be stable for long. However, over-regulating can be just as restrictive. Balance is therefore needed.
