2. Explain why you have a high or low degree of freedom.

For me, I have a low degree of freedom because, as indicated in the table above, some of
these are extremely difficult to achieve, such as trusting, forgiving, and being honest. I
understand that lying is a mistake, yet there are times when I will lie even though I know it is
wrong and end up feeling bad about it. Trusting is also difficult for me because there are people
out there who will gain your trust only to betray you or steal something really valuable to you.
Sometimes people believe that forgiving is simple, but it is not. Forgiving is simple, yet it is
dependent on the individual's condition. There are times when I can be selfish and lazy. It
depends on my mood whether I want to share stuff or food, but I am generally possessive of my
food and dislike sharing it. However, if a person is in need of food, I will gladly provide it. Most
of the time, I am lazy when it comes to housework, but there are occasions when I am quite
motivated.
3. Explain the reasons why the machine might indicate a high or low degree of freedom in our
country.

The machine could identify whether our country has a high or poor level of freedom.
Because there is injustice, judgment, selfishness, and narrow-mindedness in our country. This is
because most Filipinos have faced injustice and greed. Some Filipinos are closed-minded, as if
they feel awful about making a mistake and are more interested in being proven correct than in
asking questions and learning other people's opinions. There is also a chance that the machine
may show a high degree in our country. Because our country values sharing, spontaneity,
respect, and open-mindedness. Sharing is something that most Filipinos do, yet we can't ignore
the toxic trait of some Filipinos who take advantage of others. Most Filipinos treat others with
respect, however there are some who desire to be respected but have a nasty attitude. Some
Filipinos are open-minded in the sense that they are receptive to other people's points of view
and like brainstorming.
