In the United States our form of government is called a Democracy. A democracy is a type of government that gives the people power. The democracy of the United States has a responsibility to represent everyone equally. The rights all people should have in this democracy is freedom. Do all people have these rights no because some people in another states and cities are treated different. I feel like I have a responsibility to fight for the freedom others and I can do this by protesting.
I do believe in social responsibility and objectivism because I think we should take care of ourself and help others because we won't be selfish. No we can't choose where we are born because it is our parents decision where to people born. I do care about people that do not have freedom because they want to live a better life and they want to have an education but they can't and thats sad. Other people suffering hurt our freedom because they do not have doctors and health care. The world should care about limited freedom because I think it is not fair that people who work they make minimum wage and it make them hard to survive. I do not think we have responsibility to fight for the freedom of others because we have freedom and thats all we have to worry about. But we should help out by sending them some money and food. We do have a little responsibility because we can help the people that do not have freedom.

Just try to imagine that "the other", whoever he/she is, is different from you (not different from the human kind, but essentially... "other").
As you can fight for freedom, some other could think that freedom is not over all values. For example, I think as you do. But... freedom includes the "free autodetermination of cultures(people)", wich means that tells you that you cannot judge people from a different culture under your values.
So, in Texas there is death penalty, in Japan people think about suicide in terms that no one of us understand, and arab women think about themselves different than what you think about yourself.
I can judge people under my values, and i want to have the choice of making you respect my perspectives if you are at my home.
But I cannot go to your home and tell you what to do.
I believe in human rights, but i don't think that I can make others believe going against their will.
Look: In this right moment, there's someone who is thinking that the best solution is violence, and some other guy thinking that the only solution is being peaceful.
My english is not the best one, but I hope to... just share a thought, and a feeling with you.
Thank you for your reading.
Oscar.
