As much freedom as we each wish to have. I have a very Que Sera Sera, existential outlook on life, so I personally feel that as long as people's personal search for their lives doesn't impede on other people's lives, then they should be free to do what they choose. The world is a canvas, and we each have only a very limited time to paint a picture. I don't feel it is right for society to be dictating what is and is not an acceptable way to paint. People's worldviews and lifeviews are simply too diverse to attempt to impose an umbrella standard on. One man's dream is another man's nightmare. It sounds like you would thrive in the current modern, western world and it's standards, others (me included) would not. Some wish to take the road less traveled, pave their own way, does it seem right to try and stop them? What if they tried imposing their own lifestyle on you? You would resist, wouldn't you?
See, we all have different views and expectations from life, to restrict people's freedom of lifestyle would be unfair.So my take is that how much freedom someone wishes to have (again, without impeding on others) should entirely be their own decision. You're gonna die your own death one day, might as well live your own life. What someone wishes to do with their own lives should not be dictated by one mass, societal standard.

We're the middle children of history, man. No purpose or place. We have no Great War. No Great Depression. Our Great War's a spiritual war... our Great Depression is our lives.
