When any freedom is given, another is necessarily taken away. This is not always obvious. To defend freedom in the abstract is impossible. Particular freedoms must be favoured.

If people have the freedom to work whatever job they can get without any government interference ensuring they have jobs, they give up the freedom to live without fear of starvation and poverty.

If someone has the freedom to keep however much money they earn, the government must give up the freedom to redistribute wealth to the needy.

If companies receive the freedom can market any product they want, consumers give up the freedom to purchase products knowing they are not harmful.

If a country gains the freedom to govern itself, the country that formerly ruled it loses the freedom to intervene in its affairs.

No gain in freedom is free, some trades are wise and others short-sighted. Freedom is too abstract a concept to be used seriously in precise language.
