Which ever of which one you choose, you end up with the same result.

Both choices are the same thing. Regardless of how any one of you would or believe you would act, people as a whole are afraid to live freely.

True freedom is not the sort of freedom that you probably seek. The kind of freedom people talk about having is the freedom to act their own way WITHIN proposed limitations. (You also had a poor choice of words for the question; the very idea of having a 'society' contradicts the ideal of freedom. You cannot have a freedom based society because the very idea of organizing a society restricts the bounds of freedom.)

Believe it or not, people WANT to be limited. They need limitations. Without limitations, there is no point in living. People panic as there is nothing to work for, nothing to achieve.

Basically, in the end, if you give everyone freedom, they will eventually organize themselves a government that constricts limitations. And since no one has their perfections and emotions are unequally distributed between everyone, corruption would eventually overtake that government and we would be put right back where we started.
