I agree, just as you should be free to say/do as you wish BUT you're also responsible for the consequences. The latter part many people have problems with.
When we're protected from consequences, we fail to grow and learn. Consequences are built into life so that we can improve and develop the winning approach. By denying people the consequences of free choice, you are denying them development as a human being.
We should have let the banks fail in 2008, and we should be letting individuals fail.
I think it goes beyond that...
People espouse individual rights, but when SHTF, a lot of people want some type of handout/help.
I think "leave me alone" more or less implies "let me make my own decisions and own my own mistakes".
