Today's society is based on laws and rules. It can't function well if individuals are free to do whatever they want. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

People's adherence to the

rules

and laws we have, sometimes with strict enforcement, is a critical cornerstone

to

our

society

. As far as I am concerned, I am wholeheartedly on

this

camp and I will explain it in the following paragraphs. On one hand, the

rules

and laws are to govern the boundaries of the power of governments. Clearly defined power boundaries bring certainty and clarity, which is essential to attract investments.

For example

, if a country's government can pass a law and apply it retrospectively to fine the actions a company did in the past, or some rich and powerful officials can walk away from taking bribes, by no means any companies will feel comfortable investing in that country in future. Without continuous investment, the efficiency level would soon become laggard and fall behind the back of the treadmill, and the employment level of the

society

would be negatively impacted as well. The living standards of people there will fall eventually.

On the other hand

rules

are

set to limit citizens not to engage in criminal activities

such

as theft and robbery.

For example

, if the normal public in our

society

needed to bring weapons to defend themselves all the

time

, they would have spent considerable

resources in training themselves using these weapons and

would have less

. If

that is

the case, it seems an inevitability that both the productivity of the

society

thrive, it is paramount to make both the government and
