In that time the people have too much freedom to battle other people, not enjoy freedom. No law protects individual freedom. We heavily look up on collective freedom. Only when we have and follow the laws, we can have the freedom.

Would more freedom and more capitalism be a BAD thing? It seems to me that to allow one's people to create their OWN wealth, taking advantage of the limitless opportunity of a free and open market is
always a good thing. As long as there is a financial incentive to do so, namely making (and keeping) a profit. This is the heart of the capitalist way. Seems to work for us, as long as the government keeps out of the way. But that's another story.
