"you minimize it"

You're inflating it.

"all these restrictions affect the average person way more than anything the government ever does"

The big difference: if you don't like restrictions levied by an employer, you can quit and that employer can't tell you shit, can't do jack ('cept fill the position with some other jerk). Try that trick with 'government'.

Age restrictions on movies: can't grt worked up about those either. They're 'kids'...they'll grow into their autonomy.

"It's like, how can you be considered "free" if you have a boss you report to for half your waking hours?"

Then don't work for that bosss, if it grinds your gears. Work for someone else, work for yourself, go on the dole, starve. Ain't no one gonna stop you.

Me: I self-employ. My 'masters' are my bills and my biology, not a 'boss'. Clients sometimes get 'bossy', but I kill that shit before it starts in the work contract.

Anyway: yeah, there are all manner of 'restrictions' a body has to contend with, and a goodly chunk of 'em are volitional on our part.
