Hello. This is Nada from Seito Medical School. This time, I would like to use three types of paired words and explore their characteristics. Suppose there are three keywords: freedom and unfreedom, responsibility and irresponsibility, and rights and obligations. What kind of relationship do you think these three keywords have? Freedom, responsibility, and rights seem to be of high value to us. On the other hand, when I think of inconvenience, irresponsibility, and obligation, I feel narrow and oppressed. However, if we rearrange this based on the criteria of time, work, and money, we can make the following interesting classifications.
Free time means vacation. That is, time without work. We spend money during this time. On the other hand, when I say inconvenience, I mean my time is controlled. In other words, free time is time for work. We are making money during this time.
Next is responsibility and irresponsibility. Responsible time means public, work time. You have a lot of work responsibilities and spend company money on the job. Conversely, non-responsible time is time that is private and not working. Private time comes with personal responsibilities, but I have very few professional responsibilities other than being an employee of a company. When I was responsible, I spent the company's money, but when I was irresponsible, I spent my own personal money. In other words, whether you are responsible or not, from a certain point of view, both of you end up spending money.
Finally, it's about rights and obligations. You have the right to live even if you cannot work. Alternatively, you can receive government services, and if you are a shareholder, voting rights are also one of your rights. At this point, I think it's best to think of it as a right to receive services. Whether you earn or spend money is a case by case basis. On the other hand, I would like to imagine the obligations of citizens, such as the obligation to work and the obligation to pay taxes. I recommend that it is your duty as a citizen to work. Whether you spend or earn money is a case-by-case decision.
Up to this point, my values have been included to a great extent, and to some extent my biases have also been applied. These three elements, freedom and unfreedom, responsibility and irresponsibility, and rights and obligations, are likely to be seen as having a high value for people, that is, freedom, responsibility, and rights, but when viewed from the perspective of work. This shows that it is possible to classify them into inconvenience, responsibility, and obligation.
It might be interesting to dig a little deeper into this. In addition, the story so far includes a lot of my values, so it's possible that some people, for example, find high value in inconvenience, irresponsibility, and obligation. Up to here for this time. See you soon. (*I would like to express these relationships using mathematical formulas)
