Your Definition

Liberty is philosophy that entranced several generations and was built around the concept of a [social contract], a document that all men would respect on common consent akin to a gentleman’s handshake agreement.  The contract itself was designed to ensure [the greatest] amount of freedom for all mankind as long as those bound by the contract respected and defended it.

Liberty itself demands certain aspects from a community in order for it to function, which are often mentioned in the tripartite motto, “Liberty, Equality, and Fraternity”.

Liberty is based on egalitarian principles, not because it is simply a moral standard to adhere too, but is a logical necessity for the survival of liberty itself.  In a situation where you have masters and slaves liberty is unable to survive because people are seen as inferior or superior and thus undermines the [social contract] by the natural abuse of such [relationships].  This eroding of liberty through [authoritarian] [relationships] then goes on to fight over the balance of power in government as they attempt to control government for the benefit of themselves at the expense of others.

The balance of power designed into the US constitution is based on the philosophy of liberty in that neither the strong, nor the weak should harm one another but live together in peace and use government as a means of defending each others individual freedom to the utmost level.

One of the greatest lies of this age is that capitalism is liberty and necessary for liberty.  This is incorrect, Liberty is the foundation of which trade and production can flourish with our without any ideological construct of capitalism.  Liberty only works so long as everyone treats one another with [the golden rule] of respect and the balance of power between all parties remains intact.

It is understood that in a society that respects liberty the strong have a duty to protect the weak, in order to maintain justice for all.  A society that preys upon the weak will not long have liberty or justice.

Within the bounds of the [social contract] it is the duty of all people to defend that agreement with one another and protect each other’s freedom.

The philosophy of liberty isn’t pure freedom but based on attempt to move towards the greatest amount of freedom for individuals within a society.  The contract is essential as it is designed in an attempt to balance respect of all individuals so that we have freedom for without it the tyranny of freedom reigns.  When an individual has absolute freedom it becomes tyranny and results in the action of might makes right.
