Each is responsible for the well being of others, as well.
Freedom can be problematic, because people have used it to exploit and oppress others.
Our freedom of speech was to enable uninhibited discussion of complex theoretical ideas. Yet unscrupulous fools use it as a shield to protect their lies; they weaponize words into tools of theft and deception.
We must protect the weak from the strong. All else follows from this first principle.
But how responsible for others am I? My coworkers are bad with their finances. Is it my duty to protect them from creditors? How can I do that? Should I steal their credit cards? Should I take charge of their finances entirely? It's not just debt they need to be protected from. None of them are preparing for retirement. Am I responsible for making sure that they have money to retire?
Honestly, they're all idiots. It would be best for them if I dictated their entire lives. That way I could make sure nobody takes advantage of them.
